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

Divide each side by '8'.
-9.875 + -1x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '9.875' to each side of the equation.
-9.875 + -1x + 9.875 + x2 = 0 + 9.875

Reorder the terms:
-9.875 + 9.875 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 9.875

Combine like terms: -9.875 + 9.875 = 0.000
0.000 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 9.875
-1x + x2 = 0 + 9.875
