2 + -3b + -1b2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '-1'.
-2 + 3b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 3b + 2 + b2 = 0 + 2

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 2 + 3b + b2 = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + 3b + b2 = 0 + 2
3b + b2 = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2
3b + b2 = 2

The b term is 3b.  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.
3b + 2.25 + b2 = 2 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3b + b2 = 2 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 2 + 2.25 = 4.25
2.25 + 3b + b2 = 4.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + 1.5)(b + 1.5) = 4.25
