Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-8 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-8'.
-0.25 + -0.375x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-0.25 + -0.375x + 0.25 + x2 = 0 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
-0.25 + 0.25 + -0.375x + x2 = 0 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.375x + x2 = 0 + 0.25
-0.375x + x2 = 0 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.25 = 0.25
-0.375x + x2 = 0.25

The x term is -0.375x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.1875).
Square it (0.03515625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.03515625' to each side of the equation.
-0.375x + 0.03515625 + x2 = 0.25 + 0.03515625

Reorder the terms:
0.03515625 + -0.375x + x2 = 0.25 + 0.03515625

Combine like terms: 0.25 + 0.03515625 = 0.28515625
0.03515625 + -0.375x + x2 = 0.28515625
