8 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '8'.
-0.375 + 1.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.375' to each side of the equation.
-0.375 + 1.5x + 0.375 + x2 = 0 + 0.375

Reorder the terms:
-0.375 + 0.375 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.375

Combine like terms: -0.375 + 0.375 = 0.000
0.000 + 1.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.375
1.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.375

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.375 = 0.375
1.5x + x2 = 0.375

The x term is 1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (0.75).
