Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.39' to each side of the equation.
-0.39 + -1x + 0.39 + x2 = 0 + 0.39

Reorder the terms:
-0.39 + 0.39 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 0.39

0.00 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 0.39
-1x + x2 = 0 + 0.39

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.39 = 0.39
-1x + x2 = 0.39

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.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = 0.39 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 0.39 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0.39 + 0.25 = 0.64
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 0.64

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.5)(x + -0.5) = 0.64

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.8

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -0.5) equal to 0.8 and -0.8.

Subproblem 1

x + -0.5 = 0.8 Simplifying x + -0.5 = 0.8 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + x = 0.8 Solving -0.5 + x = 0.8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + x = 0.8 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 0.8 + 0.5 x = 0.8 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 0.8 + 0.5 = 1.3 x = 1.3 Simplifying x = 1.3

Subproblem 2

x + -0.5 = -0.8 Simplifying x + -0.5 = -0.8 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + x = -0.8 Solving -0.5 + x = -0.8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + x = -0.8 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -0.8 + 0.5 x = -0.8 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.8 + 0.5 = -0.3 x = -0.3 Simplifying x = -0.3

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {1.3, -0.3}
