Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-11 + 3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 3x + 11 + x2 = 0 + 11

Reorder the terms:
-11 + 11 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 11

Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 11
3x + x2 = 0 + 11

Combine like terms: 0 + 11 = 11
3x + x2 = 11

The x term is 3x.  Take half its coefficient (1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
3x + 2.25 + x2 = 11 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3x + x2 = 11 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 11 + 2.25 = 13.25
2.25 + 3x + x2 = 13.25
