Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-0.6 + -2.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.6' to each side of the equation.
-0.6 + -2.2x + 0.6 + x2 = 0 + 0.6

Reorder the terms:
-0.6 + 0.6 + -2.2x + x2 = 0 + 0.6

Combine like terms: -0.6 + 0.6 = 0.0
0.0 + -2.2x + x2 = 0 + 0.6
-2.2x + x2 = 0 + 0.6

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.6 = 0.6
-2.2x + x2 = 0.6

The x term is -2.2x.  Take half its coefficient (-1.1).
Square it (1.21) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.21' to each side of the equation.
-2.2x + 1.21 + x2 = 0.6 + 1.21

Reorder the terms:
1.21 + -2.2x + x2 = 0.6 + 1.21

Combine like terms: 0.6 + 1.21 = 1.81
1.21 + -2.2x + x2 = 1.81

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -1.1)(x + -1.1) = 1.81

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.345362405
