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

Divide each side by '2'.
-4.5 + 5c + c2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.5' to each side of the equation.
-4.5 + 5c + 4.5 + c2 = 0 + 4.5

Reorder the terms:
-4.5 + 4.5 + 5c + c2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: -4.5 + 4.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 5c + c2 = 0 + 4.5
5c + c2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.5 = 4.5
5c + c2 = 4.5

The c term is 5c.  Take half its coefficient (2.5).
Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '6.25' to each side of the equation.
5c + 6.25 + c2 = 4.5 + 6.25
