Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.6' to each side of the equation.
-0.6 + 0.05x + 0.6 + x2 = 0 + 0.6

Reorder the terms:
-0.6 + 0.6 + 0.05x + x2 = 0 + 0.6

Combine like terms: -0.6 + 0.6 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.05x + x2 = 0 + 0.6
0.05x + x2 = 0 + 0.6

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.6 = 0.6
0.05x + x2 = 0.6

The x term is 0.05x.  Take half its coefficient (0.025).
Square it (0.000625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.000625' to each side of the equation.
0.05x + 0.000625 + x2 = 0.6 + 0.000625

Reorder the terms:
0.000625 + 0.05x + x2 = 0.6 + 0.000625

Combine like terms: 0.6 + 0.000625 = 0.600625
0.000625 + 0.05x + x2 = 0.600625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.025)(x + 0.025) = 0.600625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.775

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 0.025) equal to 0.775 and -0.775.

Subproblem 1

x + 0.025 = 0.775 Simplifying x + 0.025 = 0.775 Reorder the terms: 0.025 + x = 0.775 Solving 0.025 + x = 0.775 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.025' to each side of the equation. 0.025 + -0.025 + x = 0.775 + -0.025 Combine like terms: 0.025 + -0.025 = 0.000 0.000 + x = 0.775 + -0.025 x = 0.775 + -0.025 Combine like terms: 0.775 + -0.025 = 0.75 x = 0.75 Simplifying x = 0.75

Subproblem 2

x + 0.025 = -0.775 Simplifying x + 0.025 = -0.775 Reorder the terms: 0.025 + x = -0.775 Solving 0.025 + x = -0.775 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.025' to each side of the equation. 0.025 + -0.025 + x = -0.775 + -0.025 Combine like terms: 0.025 + -0.025 = 0.000 0.000 + x = -0.775 + -0.025 x = -0.775 + -0.025 Combine like terms: -0.775 + -0.025 = -0.8 x = -0.8 Simplifying x = -0.8

Solution
