Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.2 + 0.8x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.2' to each side of the equation.
-1.2 + 0.8x + 1.2 + x2 = 0 + 1.2

Reorder the terms:
-1.2 + 1.2 + 0.8x + x2 = 0 + 1.2

Combine like terms: -1.2 + 1.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.8x + x2 = 0 + 1.2
0.8x + x2 = 0 + 1.2

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.2 = 1.2
0.8x + x2 = 1.2

The x term is 0.8x.  Take half its coefficient (0.4).
Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.16' to each side of the equation.
0.8x + 0.16 + x2 = 1.2 + 0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + 0.8x + x2 = 1.2 + 0.16

Combine like terms: 1.2 + 0.16 = 1.36
0.16 + 0.8x + x2 = 1.36

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.4)(x + 0.4) = 1.36

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.166190379
