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

Divide each side by '4'.
-0.375 + 0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.375' to each side of the equation.
-0.375 + 0.5x + 0.375 + x2 = 0 + 0.375

Reorder the terms:
-0.375 + 0.375 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.375

Combine like terms: -0.375 + 0.375 = 0.000
0.000 + 0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.375
0.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.375

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.375 = 0.375
0.5x + x2 = 0.375

The x term is 0.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.5x + 0.0625 + x2 = 0.375 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 0.375 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 0.375 + 0.0625 = 0.4375
0.0625 + 0.5x + x2 = 0.4375
