    x = 2.36603 or 0.633975

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Here we want to solve the quadratic equation using the completing the square method.

    2x^2-6x + 3 = 0

    divide through by 2 first;

    x^2 - 3x + 3/2 = 0

    x*2 - 3x = - 3/2

    Half the x term will be - 3/2 and squaring it is 9/4

    we add this to both sides

    x^2-3x/2 + 9/4 = - 3/2 + 9/4

    (x-3/2) ^2 = 3/4

    Finding square root of both sides

    x-3/2 = √ (3/4)

    x = 3/2 ± √ (3/4)

    x = 3/2 + √ (3/4) or x = 3/2-√ (3/4)

    which becomes

    x = 2.36603 or 0.633975
