Simplifying
38 = (x + 3)(2x + -5)

Reorder the terms:
38 = (3 + x)(2x + -5)

Reorder the terms:
38 = (3 + x)(-5 + 2x)

Multiply (3 + x) * (-5 + 2x)
38 = (3(-5 + 2x) + x(-5 + 2x))
38 = ((-5 * 3 + 2x * 3) + x(-5 + 2x))
38 = ((-15 + 6x) + x(-5 + 2x))
38 = (-15 + 6x + (-5 * x + 2x * x))
38 = (-15 + 6x + (-5x + 2x2))

Combine like terms: 6x + -5x = 1x
38 = (-15 + 1x + 2x2)

Solving
38 = -15 + 1x + 2x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 38 + 15 = 53
53 + -1x + -2x2 = -15 + 1x + 2x2 + 15 + -1x + -2x2

Reorder the terms:
53 + -1x + -2x2 = -15 + 15 + 1x + -1x + 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
53 + -1x + -2x2 = 0 + 1x + -1x + 2x2 + -2x2
53 + -1x + -2x2 = 1x + -1x + 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 1x + -1x = 0
53 + -1x + -2x2 = 0 + 2x2 + -2x2
53 + -1x + -2x2 = 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -2x2 = 0
53 + -1x + -2x2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-26.5 + 0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '26.5' to each side of the equation.
-26.5 + 0.5x + 26.5 + x2 = 0 + 26.5

Reorder the terms:
-26.5 + 26.5 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 26.5

Combine like terms: -26.5 + 26.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 26.5
0.5x + x2 = 0 + 26.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 26.5 = 26.5
0.5x + x2 = 26.5

The x term is 0.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = 26.5 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 26.5 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 26.5 + 0.0625 = 26.5625
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 26.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.25)(x + 0.25) = 26.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.153882032
