Divide each side by '4'.
-0.75 + -1.75r + r2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.75' to each side of the equation.
-0.75 + -1.75r + 0.75 + r2 = 0 + 0.75

Reorder the terms:
-0.75 + 0.75 + -1.75r + r2 = 0 + 0.75

Combine like terms: -0.75 + 0.75 = 0.00
0.00 + -1.75r + r2 = 0 + 0.75
-1.75r + r2 = 0 + 0.75

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.75 = 0.75
-1.75r + r2 = 0.75

The r term is -1.75r.  Take half its coefficient (-0.875).
Square it (0.765625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.765625' to each side of the equation.
-1.75r + 0.765625 + r2 = 0.75 + 0.765625

Reorder the terms:
0.765625 + -1.75r + r2 = 0.75 + 0.765625

Combine like terms: 0.75 + 0.765625 = 1.515625
0.765625 + -1.75r + r2 = 1.515625
