Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '-8'.
-0.5 + 1.125x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.5' to each side of the equation.
-0.5 + 1.125x + 0.5 + x2 = 0 + 0.5

Reorder the terms:
-0.5 + 0.5 + 1.125x + x2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.125x + x2 = 0 + 0.5
1.125x + x2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5 = 0.5
1.125x + x2 = 0.5

The x term is 1.125x.  Take half its coefficient (0.5625).
Square it (0.31640625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.31640625' to each side of the equation.
1.125x + 0.31640625 + x2 = 0.5 + 0.31640625

Reorder the terms:
0.31640625 + 1.125x + x2 = 0.5 + 0.31640625

Combine like terms: 0.5 + 0.31640625 = 0.81640625
0.31640625 + 1.125x + x2 = 0.81640625
