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

Divide each side by '20'.
0.1 + -0.75x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.1' to each side of the equation.
0.1 + -0.75x + -0.1 + x2 = 0 + -0.1

Reorder the terms:
0.1 + -0.1 + -0.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.1

Combine like terms: 0.1 + -0.1 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.1
-0.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.1

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.1 = -0.1
-0.75x + x2 = -0.1

The x term is -0.75x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.375).
Square it (0.140625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.140625' to each side of the equation.
-0.75x + 0.140625 + x2 = -0.1 + 0.140625

Reorder the terms:
0.140625 + -0.75x + x2 = -0.1 + 0.140625

Combine like terms: -0.1 + 0.140625 = 0.040625
0.140625 + -0.75x + x2 = 0.040625
