Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.4 + 4.6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.4' to each side of the equation.
-1.4 + 4.6x + 1.4 + x2 = 0 + 1.4

Reorder the terms:
-1.4 + 1.4 + 4.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.4

Combine like terms: -1.4 + 1.4 = 0.0
0.0 + 4.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.4
4.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.4

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.4 = 1.4
4.6x + x2 = 1.4

The x term is 4.6x.  Take half its coefficient (2.3).
Square it (5.29) and add it to both sides.

Add '5.29' to each side of the equation.
4.6x + 5.29 + x2 = 1.4 + 5.29

Reorder the terms:
5.29 + 4.6x + x2 = 1.4 + 5.29

Combine like terms: 1.4 + 5.29 = 6.69
5.29 + 4.6x + x2 = 6.69

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 2.3)(x + 2.3) = 6.69
