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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-10.5 + 4.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '10.5' to each side of the equation.
-10.5 + 4.5x + 10.5 + x2 = 0 + 10.5

Reorder the terms:
-10.5 + 10.5 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + 10.5

Combine like terms: -10.5 + 10.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + 10.5
4.5x + x2 = 0 + 10.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 10.5 = 10.5
4.5x + x2 = 10.5

The x term is 4.5x.  Take half its coefficient (2.25).
Square it (5.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '5.0625' to each side of the equation.
4.5x + 5.0625 + x2 = 10.5 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + 4.5x + x2 = 10.5 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: 10.5 + 5.0625 = 15.5625
5.0625 + 4.5x + x2 = 15.5625
