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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1.4 + -1.6x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.4' to each side of the equation.
-1.4 + -1.6x + 1.4 + x2 = 0 + 1.4

Reorder the terms:
-1.4 + 1.4 + -1.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.4

Combine like terms: -1.4 + 1.4 = 0.0
0.0 + -1.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.4
-1.6x + x2 = 0 + 1.4

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.4 = 1.4
-1.6x + x2 = 1.4

The x term is -1.6x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.8).
Square it (0.64) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.64' to each side of the equation.
-1.6x + 0.64 + x2 = 1.4 + 0.64

Reorder the terms:
0.64 + -1.6x + x2 = 1.4 + 0.64

Combine like terms: 1.4 + 0.64 = 2.04
0.64 + -1.6x + x2 = 2.04

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.8)(x + -0.8) = 2.04
