Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-20 + -1.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '20' to each side of the equation.
-20 + -1.2x + 20 + x2 = 0 + 20

Reorder the terms:
-20 + 20 + -1.2x + x2 = 0 + 20

Combine like terms: -20 + 20 = 0
0 + -1.2x + x2 = 0 + 20
-1.2x + x2 = 0 + 20

Combine like terms: 0 + 20 = 20
-1.2x + x2 = 20

The x term is -1.2x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.6).
Square it (0.36) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.36' to each side of the equation.
-1.2x + 0.36 + x2 = 20 + 0.36

Reorder the terms:
0.36 + -1.2x + x2 = 20 + 0.36

Combine like terms: 20 + 0.36 = 20.36
0.36 + -1.2x + x2 = 20.36
