4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '4'.
0.5 + 1.75x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation.
0.5 + 1.75x + -0.5 + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Reorder the terms:
0.5 + -0.5 + 1.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.5
1.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5
1.75x + x2 = -0.5

The x term is 1.75x.  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.
1.75x + 0.765625 + x2 = -0.5 + 0.765625

Reorder the terms:
0.765625 + 1.75x + x2 = -0.5 + 0.765625

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.765625 = 0.265625
0.765625 + 1.75x + x2 = 0.265625
