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

Divide each side by '15'.
0.2666666667 + -1.6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.2666666667' to each side of the equation.
0.2666666667 + -1.6x + -0.2666666667 + x2 = 0 + -0.2666666667

Reorder the terms:
0.2666666667 + -0.2666666667 + -1.6x + x2 = 0 + -0.2666666667

Combine like terms: 0.2666666667 + -0.2666666667 = 0.0000000000
0.0000000000 + -1.6x + x2 = 0 + -0.2666666667
-1.6x + x2 = 0 + -0.2666666667

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.2666666667 = -0.2666666667
-1.6x + x2 = -0.2666666667

The x term is -1.6x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.8).
Square it (0.64) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.64' to each side of the equation.
-1.6x + 0.64 + x2 = -0.2666666667 + 0.64
