Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-4 + -1.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + -1.5t + 4 + t2 = 0 + 4

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 4 + -1.5t + t2 = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + -1.5t + t2 = 0 + 4
-1.5t + t2 = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: 0 + 4 = 4
-1.5t + t2 = 4

The t term is -1.5t.  Take half its coefficient (-0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
-1.5t + 0.5625 + t2 = 4 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + -1.5t + t2 = 4 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 4 + 0.5625 = 4.5625
0.5625 + -1.5t + t2 = 4.5625
