5 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.8 + -2.2x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.8' to each side of the equation.
-1.8 + -2.2x + 1.8 + x2 = 0 + 1.8

Reorder the terms:
-1.8 + 1.8 + -2.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.8

Combine like terms: -1.8 + 1.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -2.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.8
-2.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.8 = 1.8
-2.2x + x2 = 1.8

The x term is -2.2x.  Take half its coefficient (-1.1).
