14 + 11x + -1x2 = 0 + 2x2 + -2x2
14 + 11x + -1x2 = 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -2x2 = 0
14 + 11x + -1x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-14 + -11x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '14' to each side of the equation.
-14 + -11x + 14 + x2 = 0 + 14

Reorder the terms:
-14 + 14 + -11x + x2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0
0 + -11x + x2 = 0 + 14
-11x + x2 = 0 + 14

Combine like terms: 0 + 14 = 14
-11x + x2 = 14

The x term is -11x.  Take half its coefficient (-5.5).
Square it (30.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '30.25' to each side of the equation.
-11x + 30.25 + x2 = 14 + 30.25

Reorder the terms:
30.25 + -11x + x2 = 14 + 30.25
