Solution for -8t^2+2t-5=0 equation:


Simplifying
-8t2 + 2t + -5 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-5 + 2t + -8t2 = 0

Solving
-5 + 2t + -8t2 = 0

Solving for variable 't'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-8 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-8'.
0.625 + -0.25t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.625' to each side of the equation.
0.625 + -0.25t + -0.625 + t2 = 0 + -0.625

Reorder the terms:
0.625 + -0.625 + -0.25t + t2 = 0 + -0.625

Combine like terms: 0.625 + -0.625 = 0.000
0.000 + -0.25t + t2 = 0 + -0.625
-0.25t + t2 = 0 + -0.625

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.625 = -0.625
-0.25t + t2 = -0.625

The t term is -0.25t.  Take half its coefficient (-0.125).
Square it (0.015625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.015625' to each side of the equation.
-0.25t + 0.015625 + t2 = -0.625 + 0.015625

Reorder the terms:
0.015625 + -0.25t + t2 = -0.625 + 0.015625

Combine like terms: -0.625 + 0.015625 = -0.609375
0.015625 + -0.25t + t2 = -0.609375

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -0.125)(t + -0.125) = -0.609375

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
