Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-128' to each side of the equation.
128 + 16x + -128 + x2 = 0 + -128

Reorder the terms:
128 + -128 + 16x + x2 = 0 + -128

Combine like terms: 128 + -128 = 0
0 + 16x + x2 = 0 + -128
16x + x2 = 0 + -128

Combine like terms: 0 + -128 = -128
16x + x2 = -128

The x term is 16x.  Take half its coefficient (8).
Square it (64) and add it to both sides.

Add '64' to each side of the equation.
16x + 64 + x2 = -128 + 64

Reorder the terms:
64 + 16x + x2 = -128 + 64

Combine like terms: -128 + 64 = -64
64 + 16x + x2 = -64

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 8)(x + 8) = -64

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
