Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2.5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2.5'.
2.8 + -4.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2.8' to each side of the equation.
2.8 + -4.2x + -2.8 + x2 = 0 + -2.8

Reorder the terms:
2.8 + -2.8 + -4.2x + x2 = 0 + -2.8

Combine like terms: 2.8 + -2.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -4.2x + x2 = 0 + -2.8
-4.2x + x2 = 0 + -2.8

Combine like terms: 0 + -2.8 = -2.8
-4.2x + x2 = -2.8

The x term is -4.2x.  Take half its coefficient (-2.1).
Square it (4.41) and add it to both sides.

Add '4.41' to each side of the equation.
-4.2x + 4.41 + x2 = -2.8 + 4.41

Reorder the terms:
4.41 + -4.2x + x2 = -2.8 + 4.41

Combine like terms: -2.8 + 4.41 = 1.61
4.41 + -4.2x + x2 = 1.61

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -2.1)(x + -2.1) = 1.61
