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

Divide each side by '2'.
-5 + 1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 1.5x + 5 + x2 = 0 + 5

Reorder the terms:
-5 + 5 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 5
1.5x + x2 = 0 + 5

Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5
1.5x + x2 = 5

The x term is 1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
1.5x + 0.5625 + x2 = 5 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + 1.5x + x2 = 5 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 5 + 0.5625 = 5.5625
0.5625 + 1.5x + x2 = 5.5625
