-4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-4'.
-1.5 + 0.25x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + 0.25x + 1.5 + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + 0.25x + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.25x + x2 = 0 + 1.5
0.25x + x2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
0.25x + x2 = 1.5

The x term is 0.25x.  Take half its coefficient (0.125).
Square it (0.015625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.015625' to each side of the equation.
0.25x + 0.015625 + x2 = 1.5 + 0.015625

Reorder the terms:
0.015625 + 0.25x + x2 = 1.5 + 0.015625

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 0.015625 = 1.515625
0.015625 + 0.25x + x2 = 1.515625
