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

Divide each side by '20'.
0.225 + -1.05x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.225' to each side of the equation.
0.225 + -1.05x + -0.225 + x2 = 0 + -0.225

Reorder the terms:
0.225 + -0.225 + -1.05x + x2 = 0 + -0.225

Combine like terms: 0.225 + -0.225 = 0.000
0.000 + -1.05x + x2 = 0 + -0.225
-1.05x + x2 = 0 + -0.225

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.225 = -0.225
-1.05x + x2 = -0.225

The x term is -1.05x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.525).
