21 + 2x + 5x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
4.2 + 0.4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4.2' to each side of the equation.
4.2 + 0.4x + -4.2 + x2 = 0 + -4.2

Reorder the terms:
4.2 + -4.2 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + -4.2

Combine like terms: 4.2 + -4.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + -4.2
0.4x + x2 = 0 + -4.2

Combine like terms: 0 + -4.2 = -4.2
0.4x + x2 = -4.2

The x term is 0.4x.  Take half its coefficient (0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
0.4x + 0.04 + x2 = -4.2 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + 0.4x + x2 = -4.2 + 0.04

Combine like terms: -4.2 + 0.04 = -4.16
0.04 + 0.4x + x2 = -4.16

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.2)(x + 0.2) = -4.16

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
