Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0
18 + 1x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-18' to each side of the equation.
18 + 1x + -18 + x2 = 0 + -18

Reorder the terms:
18 + -18 + 1x + x2 = 0 + -18

Combine like terms: 18 + -18 = 0
0 + 1x + x2 = 0 + -18
1x + x2 = 0 + -18

Combine like terms: 0 + -18 = -18
1x + x2 = -18

The x term is 1x.  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.
x + 0.25 + x2 = -18 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + x + x2 = -18 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -18 + 0.25 = -17.75
0.25 + x + x2 = -17.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = -17.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
