Divide each side by '4'.
-0.25 + 1.25x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-0.25 + 1.25x + 0.25 + x2 = 0 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
-0.25 + 0.25 + 1.25x + x2 = 0 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + 1.25x + x2 = 0 + 0.25
1.25x + x2 = 0 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.25 = 0.25
1.25x + x2 = 0.25

The x term is 1.25x.  Take half its coefficient (0.625).
Square it (0.390625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.390625' to each side of the equation.
1.25x + 0.390625 + x2 = 0.25 + 0.390625
