Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '-1'.
-2 + -3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + -3x + 2 + x2 = 0 + 2

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 2 + -3x + x2 = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + -3x + x2 = 0 + 2
-3x + x2 = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2
-3x + x2 = 2

The x term is -3x.  Take half its coefficient (-1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-3x + 2.25 + x2 = 2 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + -3x + x2 = 2 + 2.25
