Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '2'.
-27 + 3.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '27' to each side of the equation.
-27 + 3.5x + 27 + x2 = 0 + 27

Reorder the terms:
-27 + 27 + 3.5x + x2 = 0 + 27

Combine like terms: -27 + 27 = 0
0 + 3.5x + x2 = 0 + 27
3.5x + x2 = 0 + 27

Combine like terms: 0 + 27 = 27
3.5x + x2 = 27

The x term is 3.5x.  Take half its coefficient (1.75).
Square it (3.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.0625' to each side of the equation.
3.5x + 3.0625 + x2 = 27 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + 3.5x + x2 = 27 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: 27 + 3.0625 = 30.0625
3.0625 + 3.5x + x2 = 30.0625
