Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '16'.
0.0625 + -1x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.0625 + -1x + -0.0625 + x2 = 0 + -0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.0625 + -1x + x2 = 0 + -0.0625

Combine like terms: 0.0625 + -0.0625 = 0.0000
0.0000 + -1x + x2 = 0 + -0.0625
-1x + x2 = 0 + -0.0625

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.0625 = -0.0625
-1x + x2 = -0.0625

The x term is -1x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = -0.0625 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = -0.0625 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.0625 + 0.25 = 0.1875
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 0.1875

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.5)(x + -0.5) = 0.1875
