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

Divide each side by '25'.
-0.64 + -0.64x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.64' to each side of the equation.
-0.64 + -0.64x + 0.64 + x2 = 0 + 0.64

Reorder the terms:
-0.64 + 0.64 + -0.64x + x2 = 0 + 0.64

Combine like terms: -0.64 + 0.64 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.64x + x2 = 0 + 0.64
-0.64x + x2 = 0 + 0.64

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.64 = 0.64
-0.64x + x2 = 0.64

The x term is -0.64x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.32).
Square it (0.1024) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.1024' to each side of the equation.
-0.64x + 0.1024 + x2 = 0.64 + 0.1024

Reorder the terms:
0.1024 + -0.64x + x2 = 0.64 + 0.1024

Combine like terms: 0.64 + 0.1024 = 0.7424
0.1024 + -0.64x + x2 = 0.7424
