Simplifying
3 + -4(x + -2) = 8x(2x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
3 + -4(-2 + x) = 8x(2x + -1)
3 + (-2 * -4 + x * -4) = 8x(2x + -1)
3 + (8 + -4x) = 8x(2x + -1)

Combine like terms: 3 + 8 = 11
11 + -4x = 8x(2x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
11 + -4x = 8x(-1 + 2x)
11 + -4x = (-1 * 8x + 2x * 8x)
11 + -4x = (-8x + 16x2)

Solving
11 + -4x = -8x + 16x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: -4x + 8x = 4x
11 + 4x + -16x2 = -8x + 16x2 + 8x + -16x2

Reorder the terms:
11 + 4x + -16x2 = -8x + 8x + 16x2 + -16x2

Combine like terms: -8x + 8x = 0
11 + 4x + -16x2 = 0 + 16x2 + -16x2
11 + 4x + -16x2 = 16x2 + -16x2

Combine like terms: 16x2 + -16x2 = 0
11 + 4x + -16x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-16 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-16'.
-0.6875 + -0.25x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.6875' to each side of the equation.
-0.6875 + -0.25x + 0.6875 + x2 = 0 + 0.6875

Reorder the terms:
-0.6875 + 0.6875 + -0.25x + x2 = 0 + 0.6875

Combine like terms: -0.6875 + 0.6875 = 0.0000
0.0000 + -0.25x + x2 = 0 + 0.6875
-0.25x + x2 = 0 + 0.6875

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.6875 = 0.6875
-0.25x + x2 = 0.6875

The x term is -0.25x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.125).
Square it (0.015625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.015625' to each side of the equation.
-0.25x + 0.015625 + x2 = 0.6875 + 0.015625

Reorder the terms:
0.015625 + -0.25x + x2 = 0.6875 + 0.015625

Combine like terms: 0.6875 + 0.015625 = 0.703125
0.015625 + -0.25x + x2 = 0.703125

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.125)(x + -0.125) = 0.703125

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.838525492
