Move the constant term to the right:

Add '60' to each side of the equation.
-60 + x + 60 + x2 = 0 + 60

Reorder the terms:
-60 + 60 + x + x2 = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: -60 + 60 = 0
0 + x + x2 = 0 + 60
x + x2 = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: 0 + 60 = 60
x + x2 = 60

The x term is x.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
 + 0.25 + x2 = 60 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + x2 = 60 + 0.25
