Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-0.2 + 1.8x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.2' to each side of the equation.
-0.2 + 1.8x + 0.2 + x2 = 0 + 0.2

Reorder the terms:
-0.2 + 0.2 + 1.8x + x2 = 0 + 0.2

Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.8x + x2 = 0 + 0.2
1.8x + x2 = 0 + 0.2

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.2 = 0.2
1.8x + x2 = 0.2

The x term is 1.8x.  Take half its coefficient (0.9).
Square it (0.81) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.81' to each side of the equation.
1.8x + 0.81 + x2 = 0.2 + 0.81

Reorder the terms:
0.81 + 1.8x + x2 = 0.2 + 0.81

Combine like terms: 0.2 + 0.81 = 1.01
0.81 + 1.8x + x2 = 1.01
