Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
0.25 + -6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.25 + -6x + -0.25 + x2 = 0 + -0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -0.25 + -6x + x2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0.25 + -0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + -6x + x2 = 0 + -0.25
-6x + x2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.25 = -0.25
-6x + x2 = -0.25

The x term is -6x.  Take half its coefficient (-3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
-6x + 9 + x2 = -0.25 + 9

Reorder the terms:
9 + -6x + x2 = -0.25 + 9

Combine like terms: -0.25 + 9 = 8.75
9 + -6x + x2 = 8.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -3)(x + -3) = 8.75
