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

Divide each side by '15'.
-0.3333333333 + -0.8x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.3333333333' to each side of the equation.
-0.3333333333 + -0.8x + 0.3333333333 + x2 = 0 + 0.3333333333

Reorder the terms:
-0.3333333333 + 0.3333333333 + -0.8x + x2 = 0 + 0.3333333333

Combine like terms: -0.3333333333 + 0.3333333333 = 0.0000000000
0.0000000000 + -0.8x + x2 = 0 + 0.3333333333
-0.8x + x2 = 0 + 0.3333333333

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.3333333333 = 0.3333333333
-0.8x + x2 = 0.3333333333

The x term is -0.8x.  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.
-0.8x + 0.16 + x2 = 0.3333333333 + 0.16
