Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-5'.
-0.8 + 2.6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.8' to each side of the equation.
-0.8 + 2.6x + 0.8 + x2 = 0 + 0.8

Reorder the terms:
-0.8 + 0.8 + 2.6x + x2 = 0 + 0.8

Combine like terms: -0.8 + 0.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.6x + x2 = 0 + 0.8
2.6x + x2 = 0 + 0.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.8 = 0.8
2.6x + x2 = 0.8

The x term is 2.6x.  Take half its coefficient (1.3).
Square it (1.69) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.69' to each side of the equation.
2.6x + 1.69 + x2 = 0.8 + 1.69

Reorder the terms:
1.69 + 2.6x + x2 = 0.8 + 1.69

Combine like terms: 0.8 + 1.69 = 2.49
1.69 + 2.6x + x2 = 2.49
