Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-16 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-16'.
-0.4375 + -1.25t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.4375' to each side of the equation.
-0.4375 + -1.25t + 0.4375 + t2 = 0 + 0.4375

Reorder the terms:
-0.4375 + 0.4375 + -1.25t + t2 = 0 + 0.4375

Combine like terms: -0.4375 + 0.4375 = 0.0000
0.0000 + -1.25t + t2 = 0 + 0.4375
-1.25t + t2 = 0 + 0.4375

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.4375 = 0.4375
-1.25t + t2 = 0.4375

The t term is -1.25t.  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.
-1.25t + 0.390625 + t2 = 0.4375 + 0.390625

Reorder the terms:
0.390625 + -1.25t + t2 = 0.4375 + 0.390625

Combine like terms: 0.4375 + 0.390625 = 0.828125
0.390625 + -1.25t + t2 = 0.828125
