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

Divide each side by '10'.
-0.3 + -0.8p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.3' to each side of the equation.
-0.3 + -0.8p + 0.3 + p2 = 0 + 0.3

Reorder the terms:
-0.3 + 0.3 + -0.8p + p2 = 0 + 0.3

Combine like terms: -0.3 + 0.3 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.8p + p2 = 0 + 0.3
-0.8p + p2 = 0 + 0.3

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.3 = 0.3
-0.8p + p2 = 0.3

The p term is -0.8p.  Take half its coefficient (-0.4).
Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.16' to each side of the equation.
-0.8p + 0.16 + p2 = 0.3 + 0.16
