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

Divide each side by '5'.
-0.04 + -0.8b + b2 = 0.0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
-0.04 + -0.8b + 0.04 + b2 = 0.0 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
-0.04 + 0.04 + -0.8b + b2 = 0.0 + 0.04

Combine like terms: -0.04 + 0.04 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.8b + b2 = 0.0 + 0.04
-0.8b + b2 = 0.0 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 0.0 + 0.04 = 0.04
-0.8b + b2 = 0.04

The b term is -0.8b.  Take half its coefficient (-0.4).
Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.16' to each side of the equation.
-0.8b + 0.16 + b2 = 0.04 + 0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + -0.8b + b2 = 0.04 + 0.16

Combine like terms: 0.04 + 0.16 = 0.2
0.16 + -0.8b + b2 = 0.2
