Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-59' to each side of the equation.
59 + -15x + -59 + x2 = 0 + -59

Reorder the terms:
59 + -59 + -15x + x2 = 0 + -59

Combine like terms: 59 + -59 = 0
0 + -15x + x2 = 0 + -59
-15x + x2 = 0 + -59

Combine like terms: 0 + -59 = -59
-15x + x2 = -59

The x term is -15x.  Take half its coefficient (-7.5).
Square it (56.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '56.25' to each side of the equation.
-15x + 56.25 + x2 = -59 + 56.25

Reorder the terms:
56.25 + -15x + x2 = -59 + 56.25

Combine like terms: -59 + 56.25 = -2.75
56.25 + -15x + x2 = -2.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -7.5)(x + -7.5) = -2.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
