Solving
0.04 + -0.5x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.04' to each side of the equation.
0.04 + -0.5x + -0.04 + x2 = 0 + -0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + -0.04 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.04

Combine like terms: 0.04 + -0.04 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.04
-0.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.04

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.04 = -0.04
-0.5x + x2 = -0.04

The x term is -0.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
-0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = -0.04 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.5x + x2 = -0.04 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: -0.04 + 0.0625 = 0.0225
0.0625 + -0.5x + x2 = 0.0225

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.25)(x + -0.25) = 0.0225

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.15

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -0.25) equal to 0.15 and -0.15.

Subproblem 1

x + -0.25 = 0.15 Simplifying x + -0.25 = 0.15 Reorder the terms: -0.25 + x = 0.15 Solving -0.25 + x = 0.15 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.25' to each side of the equation. -0.25 + 0.25 + x = 0.15 + 0.25 Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 0.15 + 0.25 x = 0.15 + 0.25 Combine like terms: 0.15 + 0.25 = 0.4 x = 0.4 Simplifying x = 0.4

Subproblem 2

x + -0.25 = -0.15 Simplifying x + -0.25 = -0.15 Reorder the terms: -0.25 + x = -0.15 Solving -0.25 + x = -0.15 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.25' to each side of the equation. -0.25 + 0.25 + x = -0.15 + 0.25 Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = -0.15 + 0.25 x = -0.15 + 0.25 Combine like terms: -0.15 + 0.25 = 0.1 x = 0.1 Simplifying x = 0.1

Solution
