-1X + X2 = 4

The X term is X.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1X + 0.25 + X2 = 4 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1X + X2 = 4 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 4 + 0.25 = 4.25
0.25 + -1X + X2 = 4.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(X + 0.5)(X + 0.5) = 4.25
