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

Divide each side by '5'.
-3.4 + 0.6X + X2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3.4' to each side of the equation.
-3.4 + 0.6X + 3.4 + X2 = 0 + 3.4

Reorder the terms:
-3.4 + 3.4 + 0.6X + X2 = 0 + 3.4

Combine like terms: -3.4 + 3.4 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.6X + X2 = 0 + 3.4
0.6X + X2 = 0 + 3.4

Combine like terms: 0 + 3.4 = 3.4
0.6X + X2 = 3.4

The X term is 0.6X.  Take half its coefficient (0.3).
Square it (0.09) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.09' to each side of the equation.
0.6X + 0.09 + X2 = 3.4 + 0.09
