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

Divide each side by '16'.
0.0625 + -1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.0625 + -1.5x + -0.0625 + x2 = 0 + -0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.0625 + -1.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.0625

Combine like terms: 0.0625 + -0.0625 = 0.0000
0.0000 + -1.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.0625
-1.5x + x2 = 0 + -0.0625

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.0625 = -0.0625
-1.5x + x2 = -0.0625

The x term is -1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
-1.5x + 0.5625 + x2 = -0.0625 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + -1.5x + x2 = -0.0625 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: -0.0625 + 0.5625 = 0.5
0.5625 + -1.5x + x2 = 0.5
