Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
10.2 + -4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-10.2' to each side of the equation.
10.2 + -4x + -10.2 + x2 = 0 + -10.2

Reorder the terms:
10.2 + -10.2 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -10.2

Combine like terms: 10.2 + -10.2 = 0.0
0.0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -10.2
-4x + x2 = 0 + -10.2

Combine like terms: 0 + -10.2 = -10.2
-4x + x2 = -10.2

The x term is -4x.  Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4x + 4 + x2 = -10.2 + 4
