Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.75' to each side of the equation.
0.75 + -2x + -0.75 + x2 = 0 + -0.75

Reorder the terms:
0.75 + -0.75 + -2x + x2 = 0 + -0.75

Combine like terms: 0.75 + -0.75 = 0.00
0.00 + -2x + x2 = 0 + -0.75
-2x + x2 = 0 + -0.75

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.75 = -0.75
-2x + x2 = -0.75

The x term is -2x.  Take half its coefficient (-1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-2x + 1 + x2 = -0.75 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + -2x + x2 = -0.75 + 1

Combine like terms: -0.75 + 1 = 0.25
1 + -2x + x2 = 0.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -1)(x + -1) = 0.25

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -1) equal to 0.5 and -0.5.

Subproblem 1

x + -1 = 0.5 Simplifying x + -1 = 0.5 Reorder the terms: -1 + x = 0.5 Solving -1 + x = 0.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + x = 0.5 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + x = 0.5 + 1 x = 0.5 + 1 Combine like terms: 0.5 + 1 = 1.5 x = 1.5 Simplifying x = 1.5

Subproblem 2

x + -1 = -0.5 Simplifying x + -1 = -0.5 Reorder the terms: -1 + x = -0.5 Solving -1 + x = -0.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + x = -0.5 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + x = -0.5 + 1 x = -0.5 + 1 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 1 = 0.5 x = 0.5 Simplifying x = 0.5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {1.5, 0.5}
