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

Divide each side by '-16'.
0.975 + -2.45t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.975' to each side of the equation.
0.975 + -2.45t + -0.975 + t2 = 0 + -0.975

Reorder the terms:
0.975 + -0.975 + -2.45t + t2 = 0 + -0.975

Combine like terms: 0.975 + -0.975 = 0.000
0.000 + -2.45t + t2 = 0 + -0.975
-2.45t + t2 = 0 + -0.975

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.975 = -0.975
-2.45t + t2 = -0.975

The t term is -2.45t.  Take half its coefficient (-1.225).
Square it (1.500625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.500625' to each side of the equation.
-2.45t + 1.500625 + t2 = -0.975 + 1.500625

Reorder the terms:
1.500625 + -2.45t + t2 = -0.975 + 1.500625

Combine like terms: -0.975 + 1.500625 = 0.525625
1.500625 + -2.45t + t2 = 0.525625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -1.225)(t + -1.225) = 0.525625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.725

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(t + -1.225) equal to 0.725 and -0.725.

Subproblem 1

t + -1.225 = 0.725 Simplifying t + -1.225 = 0.725 Reorder the terms: -1.225 + t = 0.725 Solving -1.225 + t = 0.725 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.225' to each side of the equation. -1.225 + 1.225 + t = 0.725 + 1.225 Combine like terms: -1.225 + 1.225 = 0.000 0.000 + t = 0.725 + 1.225 t = 0.725 + 1.225 Combine like terms: 0.725 + 1.225 = 1.95 t = 1.95 Simplifying t = 1.95

Subproblem 2

t + -1.225 = -0.725 Simplifying t + -1.225 = -0.725 Reorder the terms: -1.225 + t = -0.725 Solving -1.225 + t = -0.725 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.225' to each side of the equation. -1.225 + 1.225 + t = -0.725 + 1.225 Combine like terms: -1.225 + 1.225 = 0.000 0.000 + t = -0.725 + 1.225 t = -0.725 + 1.225 Combine like terms: -0.725 + 1.225 = 0.5 t = 0.5 Simplifying t = 0.5
