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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-1 + 3.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 3.5x + 1 + x2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + 3.5x + x2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + 3.5x + x2 = 0 + 1
3.5x + x2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
3.5x + x2 = 1

The x term is 3.5x.  Take half its coefficient (1.75).
