4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '4'.
-1.25 + 3x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.25' to each side of the equation.
-1.25 + 3x + 1.25 + x2 = 0 + 1.25

Reorder the terms:
-1.25 + 1.25 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 1.25

Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00
0.00 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 1.25
3x + x2 = 0 + 1.25

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.25 = 1.25
3x + x2 = 1.25

The x term is 3x.  Take half its coefficient (1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
3x + 2.25 + x2 = 1.25 + 2.25
