-0.6875 + 0.6875 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.6875

Combine like terms: -0.6875 + 0.6875 = 0.0000
0.0000 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.6875
0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.6875

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.6875 = 0.6875
0.5x + x2 = 0.6875

The x term is 0.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = 0.6875 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 0.6875 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 0.6875 + 0.0625 = 0.75
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 0.75
