Simplifying
-1b + 1 = -2b2

Reorder the terms:
1 + -1b = -2b2

Solving
1 + -1b = -2b2

Solving for variable 'b'.

Combine like terms: -2b2 + 2b2 = 0
1 + -1b + 2b2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
0.5 + -0.5b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation.
0.5 + -0.5b + -0.5 + b2 = 0 + -0.5

Reorder the terms:
0.5 + -0.5 + -0.5b + b2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.5b + b2 = 0 + -0.5
-0.5b + b2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5
-0.5b + b2 = -0.5

The b term is -0.5b.  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.
-0.5b + 0.0625 + b2 = -0.5 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.5b + b2 = -0.5 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.0625 = -0.4375
0.0625 + -0.5b + b2 = -0.4375

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + -0.25)(b + -0.25) = -0.4375

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
