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

Divide each side by '15'.
-0.5333333333 + 0.4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.5333333333' to each side of the equation.
-0.5333333333 + 0.4x + 0.5333333333 + x2 = 0 + 0.5333333333

Reorder the terms:
-0.5333333333 + 0.5333333333 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + 0.5333333333

Combine like terms: -0.5333333333 + 0.5333333333 = 0.0000000000
0.0000000000 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + 0.5333333333
0.4x + x2 = 0 + 0.5333333333

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5333333333 = 0.5333333333
0.4x + x2 = 0.5333333333

The x term is 0.4x.  Take half its coefficient (0.2).
