-4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-4'.
-4.5 + 2.75x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.5' to each side of the equation.
-4.5 + 2.75x + 4.5 + x2 = 0 + 4.5

Reorder the terms:
-4.5 + 4.5 + 2.75x + x2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: -4.5 + 4.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.75x + x2 = 0 + 4.5
2.75x + x2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.5 = 4.5
2.75x + x2 = 4.5

The x term is 2.75x.  Take half its coefficient (1.375).
