Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
0.75 + 3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.75' to each side of the equation.
0.75 + 3x + -0.75 + x2 = 0 + -0.75

Reorder the terms:
0.75 + -0.75 + 3x + x2 = 0 + -0.75

Combine like terms: 0.75 + -0.75 = 0.00
0.00 + 3x + x2 = 0 + -0.75
3x + x2 = 0 + -0.75

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.75 = -0.75
3x + x2 = -0.75

The x term is 3x.  Take half its coefficient (1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
3x + 2.25 + x2 = -0.75 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3x + x2 = -0.75 + 2.25

Combine like terms: -0.75 + 2.25 = 1.5
2.25 + 3x + x2 = 1.5
