Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-0.4 + x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

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

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

Combine like terms: -0.4 + 0.4 = 0.0
0.0 + x + x2 = 0 + 0.4
x + x2 = 0 + 0.4

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

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

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
 + 0.25 + x2 = 0.4 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + x2 = 0.4 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0.4 + 0.25 = 0.65
1.25 + x2 = 0.65

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = 0.65
