Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 6d + 1 + d2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + 6d + d2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + 6d + d2 = 0 + 1
6d + d2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
6d + d2 = 1

The d term is 6d.  Take half its coefficient (3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
6d + 9 + d2 = 1 + 9

Reorder the terms:
9 + 6d + d2 = 1 + 9

Combine like terms: 1 + 9 = 10
9 + 6d + d2 = 10

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(d + 3)(d + 3) = 10

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.16227766

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(d + 3) equal to 3.16227766 and -3.16227766.

Subproblem 1
d + 3 = 3.16227766

Simplifying
d + 3 = 3.16227766

Reorder the terms:
3 + d = 3.16227766

Solving
3 + d = 3.16227766

Solving for variable 'd'.

Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + d = 3.16227766 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + d = 3.16227766 + -3
d = 3.16227766 + -3

Combine like terms: 3.16227766 + -3 = 0.16227766
d = 0.16227766

Simplifying
d = 0.16227766

Subproblem 2
d + 3 = -3.16227766

Simplifying
d + 3 = -3.16227766

Reorder the terms:
3 + d = -3.16227766

Solving
3 + d = -3.16227766

Solving for variable 'd'.

Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + d = -3.16227766 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + d = -3.16227766 + -3
d = -3.16227766 + -3

Combine like terms: -3.16227766 + -3 = -6.16227766
d = -6.16227766

Simplifying
d = -6.16227766

Solution
The solution to the problem is based on the solutions
from the subproblems.
d = {0.16227766, -6.16227766}
