Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '4'.
0.16 + -1x2 + x4 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.16' to each side of the equation.
0.16 + -1x2 + -0.16 + x4 = 0 + -0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + -0.16 + -1x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.16

Combine like terms: 0.16 + -0.16 = 0.00
0.00 + -1x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.16
-1x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.16

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.16 = -0.16
-1x2 + x4 = -0.16

The x term is -1x2.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1x2 + 0.25 + x4 = -0.16 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x2 + x4 = -0.16 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.16 + 0.25 = 0.09
0.25 + -1x2 + x4 = 0.09

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x2 + -0.5)(x2 + -0.5) = 0.09

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.3

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x2 + -0.5) equal to 0.3 and -0.3.

Subproblem 1

x2 + -0.5 = 0.3 Simplifying x2 + -0.5 = 0.3 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + x2 = 0.3 Solving -0.5 + x2 = 0.3 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + x2 = 0.3 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x2 = 0.3 + 0.5 x2 = 0.3 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 0.3 + 0.5 = 0.8 x2 = 0.8 Simplifying x2 = 0.8 Take the square root of each side: x = {-0.894427191, 0.894427191}

Subproblem 2

x2 + -0.5 = -0.3 Simplifying x2 + -0.5 = -0.3 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + x2 = -0.3 Solving -0.5 + x2 = -0.3 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + x2 = -0.3 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x2 = -0.3 + 0.5 x2 = -0.3 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.3 + 0.5 = 0.2 x2 = 0.2 Simplifying x2 = 0.2 Take the square root of each side: x = {-0.447213596, 0.447213596}

Solution
