Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-0.2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-0.2'.
-140 + 15x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '140' to each side of the equation.
-140 + 15x + 140 + x2 = 0 + 140

Reorder the terms:
-140 + 140 + 15x + x2 = 0 + 140

Combine like terms: -140 + 140 = 0
0 + 15x + x2 = 0 + 140
15x + x2 = 0 + 140

Combine like terms: 0 + 140 = 140
15x + x2 = 140

The x term is 15x.  Take half its coefficient (7.5).
Square it (56.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '56.25' to each side of the equation.
15x + 56.25 + x2 = 140 + 56.25

Reorder the terms:
56.25 + 15x + x2 = 140 + 56.25

Combine like terms: 140 + 56.25 = 196.25
56.25 + 15x + x2 = 196.25
