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

Divide each side by '5'.
-4.2 + -0.8x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.2' to each side of the equation.
-4.2 + -0.8x + 4.2 + x2 = 0 + 4.2

Reorder the terms:
-4.2 + 4.2 + -0.8x + x2 = 0 + 4.2

Combine like terms: -4.2 + 4.2 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.8x + x2 = 0 + 4.2
-0.8x + x2 = 0 + 4.2

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.2 = 4.2
-0.8x + x2 = 4.2

The x term is -0.8x.  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.
-0.8x + 0.16 + x2 = 4.2 + 0.16
