Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-4'.
-2.75 + -2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2.75' to each side of the equation.
-2.75 + -2x + 2.75 + x2 = 0 + 2.75

Reorder the terms:
-2.75 + 2.75 + -2x + x2 = 0 + 2.75

Combine like terms: -2.75 + 2.75 = 0.00
0.00 + -2x + x2 = 0 + 2.75
-2x + x2 = 0 + 2.75

Combine like terms: 0 + 2.75 = 2.75
-2x + x2 = 2.75

The x term is -2x.  Take half its coefficient (-1).
