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

Divide each side by '2'.
-32 + -0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '32' to each side of the equation.
-32 + -0.5x + 32 + x2 = 0 + 32

Reorder the terms:
-32 + 32 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + 32

Combine like terms: -32 + 32 = 0
0 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + 32
-0.5x + x2 = 0 + 32

Combine like terms: 0 + 32 = 32
-0.5x + x2 = 32

The x term is -0.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
-0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = 32 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.5x + x2 = 32 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 32 + 0.0625 = 32.0625
0.0625 + -0.5x + x2 = 32.0625
