Simplifying
(5x + -1)(5x + -1) = 48

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 5x)(5x + -1) = 48

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 5x)(-1 + 5x) = 48

Multiply (-1 + 5x) * (-1 + 5x)
(-1(-1 + 5x) + 5x * (-1 + 5x)) = 48
((-1 * -1 + 5x * -1) + 5x * (-1 + 5x)) = 48
((1 + -5x) + 5x * (-1 + 5x)) = 48
(1 + -5x + (-1 * 5x + 5x * 5x)) = 48
(1 + -5x + (-5x + 25x2)) = 48

Combine like terms: -5x + -5x = -10x
(1 + -10x + 25x2) = 48

Solving
1 + -10x + 25x2 = 48

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
1 + -48 + -10x + 25x2 = 48 + -48

Combine like terms: 1 + -48 = -47
-47 + -10x + 25x2 = 48 + -48

Combine like terms: 48 + -48 = 0
-47 + -10x + 25x2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '25'.
-1.88 + -0.4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.88' to each side of the equation.
-1.88 + -0.4x + 1.88 + x2 = 0 + 1.88

Reorder the terms:
-1.88 + 1.88 + -0.4x + x2 = 0 + 1.88

Combine like terms: -1.88 + 1.88 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.4x + x2 = 0 + 1.88
-0.4x + x2 = 0 + 1.88

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.88 = 1.88
-0.4x + x2 = 1.88

The x term is -0.4x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
-0.4x + 0.04 + x2 = 1.88 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + -0.4x + x2 = 1.88 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 1.88 + 0.04 = 1.92
0.04 + -0.4x + x2 = 1.92

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.2)(x + -0.2) = 1.92
