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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.8 + -0.6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.8' to each side of the equation.
-1.8 + -0.6x + 1.8 + x2 = 0 + 1.8

Reorder the terms:
-1.8 + 1.8 + -0.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.8

Combine like terms: -1.8 + 1.8 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.8
-0.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.8 = 1.8
-0.6x + x2 = 1.8

The x term is -0.6x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.3).
Square it (0.09) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.09' to each side of the equation.
-0.6x + 0.09 + x2 = 1.8 + 0.09
