Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
12.5 + -0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-12.5' to each side of the equation.
12.5 + -0.5x + -12.5 + x2 = 0 + -12.5

Reorder the terms:
12.5 + -12.5 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + -12.5

Combine like terms: 12.5 + -12.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + -12.5
-0.5x + x2 = 0 + -12.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -12.5 = -12.5
-0.5x + x2 = -12.5

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.
-0.5x + 0.25 + x2 = -12.5 + 0.25
