Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-2.5 + -4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.5' to each side of the equation.
-2.5 + -4x + 2.5 + x2 = 0 + 2.5

Reorder the terms:
-2.5 + 2.5 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 2.5

Combine like terms: -2.5 + 2.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 2.5
-4x + x2 = 0 + 2.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.5 = 2.5
-4x + x2 = 2.5

The x term is -4x.  Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4x + 4 + x2 = 2.5 + 4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4x + x2 = 2.5 + 4

Combine like terms: 2.5 + 4 = 6.5
4 + -4x + x2 = 6.5

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -2)(x + -2) = 6.5
