Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
10.5 + -7.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-10.5' to each side of the equation.
10.5 + -7.5x + -10.5 + x2 = 0 + -10.5

Reorder the terms:
10.5 + -10.5 + -7.5x + x2 = 0 + -10.5

Combine like terms: 10.5 + -10.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -7.5x + x2 = 0 + -10.5
-7.5x + x2 = 0 + -10.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -10.5 = -10.5
-7.5x + x2 = -10.5

The x term is -7.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-3.75).
Square it (14.0625) and add it to both sides.
