-44 + 35x + -5x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-5'.
8.8 + -7x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-8.8' to each side of the equation.
8.8 + -7x + -8.8 + x2 = 0 + -8.8

Reorder the terms:
8.8 + -8.8 + -7x + x2 = 0 + -8.8

Combine like terms: 8.8 + -8.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -7x + x2 = 0 + -8.8
-7x + x2 = 0 + -8.8

Combine like terms: 0 + -8.8 = -8.8
-7x + x2 = -8.8

The x term is -7x.  Take half its coefficient (-3.5).
