Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '-16'.
4.0625 + -2.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-4.0625' to each side of the equation.
4.0625 + -2.5t + -4.0625 + t2 = 0 + -4.0625

Reorder the terms:
4.0625 + -4.0625 + -2.5t + t2 = 0 + -4.0625

Combine like terms: 4.0625 + -4.0625 = 0.0000
0.0000 + -2.5t + t2 = 0 + -4.0625
-2.5t + t2 = 0 + -4.0625

Combine like terms: 0 + -4.0625 = -4.0625
-2.5t + t2 = -4.0625

The t term is -2.5t.  Take half its coefficient (-1.25).
Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation.
-2.5t + 1.5625 + t2 = -4.0625 + 1.5625

Reorder the terms:
1.5625 + -2.5t + t2 = -4.0625 + 1.5625

Combine like terms: -4.0625 + 1.5625 = -2.5
1.5625 + -2.5t + t2 = -2.5

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -1.25)(t + -1.25) = -2.5

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
