The solutions would be +0.37 and -0.37.

When completing the square, we take 1/2 of the value of b (in this case 5).  5/2=2.5.  We then square this number:  2.5²=6.25.  We add this value to both sides of the equation:

x²+5x+6.25 = 2+6.25
(x+2.5)² = 8.25

Take the square root of both sides:
√(x+2.5)² = √8.25
x + 2.5 = 2.87

Subtract 2.5 from both sides:"
x+2.5-2.5 = 2.87-2.5
x = 0.37

We have to take the positive and negative values for solutions, however, since a square root has both positive and negative answers.
