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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.6 + 0.4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.6' to each side of the equation.
-1.6 + 0.4x + 1.6 + x2 = 0 + 1.6

Reorder the terms:
-1.6 + 1.6 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + 1.6

Combine like terms: -1.6 + 1.6 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.4x + x2 = 0 + 1.6
0.4x + x2 = 0 + 1.6

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.6 = 1.6
0.4x + x2 = 1.6

The x term is 0.4x.  Take half its coefficient (0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
0.4x + 0.04 + x2 = 1.6 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + 0.4x + x2 = 1.6 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 1.6 + 0.04 = 1.64
0.04 + 0.4x + x2 = 1.64

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.2)(x + 0.2) = 1.64

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.280624847
