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

Divide each side by '16'.
-0.1875 + -4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.1875' to each side of the equation.
-0.1875 + -4x + 0.1875 + x2 = 0 + 0.1875

Reorder the terms:
-0.1875 + 0.1875 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 0.1875

Combine like terms: -0.1875 + 0.1875 = 0.0000
0.0000 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 0.1875
-4x + x2 = 0 + 0.1875

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.1875 = 0.1875
-4x + x2 = 0.1875

The x term is -4x.  Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4x + 4 + x2 = 0.1875 + 4

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4x + x2 = 0.1875 + 4

Combine like terms: 0.1875 + 4 = 4.1875
4 + -4x + x2 = 4.1875

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -2)(x + -2) = 4.1875
