Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
7.5 + -7.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-7.5' to each side of the equation.
7.5 + -7.5t + -7.5 + t2 = 0 + -7.5

Reorder the terms:
7.5 + -7.5 + -7.5t + t2 = 0 + -7.5

Combine like terms: 7.5 + -7.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -7.5t + t2 = 0 + -7.5
-7.5t + t2 = 0 + -7.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -7.5 = -7.5
-7.5t + t2 = -7.5

The t term is -7.5t.  Take half its coefficient (-3.75).
Square it (14.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '14.0625' to each side of the equation.
-7.5t + 14.0625 + t2 = -7.5 + 14.0625
