Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-2.8 + 0.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.8' to each side of the equation.
-2.8 + 0.2x + 2.8 + x2 = 0 + 2.8

Reorder the terms:
-2.8 + 2.8 + 0.2x + x2 = 0 + 2.8

Combine like terms: -2.8 + 2.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.2x + x2 = 0 + 2.8
0.2x + x2 = 0 + 2.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.8 = 2.8
0.2x + x2 = 2.8

The x term is x.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.2x + 0.25 + x2 = 2.8 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.2x + x2 = 2.8 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 2.8 + 0.25 = 3.05
0.25 + 0.2x + x2 = 3.05
