0=-16t^2+100t+85

Solution for 0=-16t^2+100t+85 equation:

0=-16t^2+100t+85

We move all terms to the left:

0-(-16t^2+100t+85)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-(-16t^2+100t+85)=0

We get rid of parentheses

16t^2-100t-85=0

a = 16; b = -100; c = -85;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -1002-4·16·(-85)
Δ = 15440
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{15440}=\sqrt{16*965}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{965}=4\sqrt{965}$
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-100)-4\sqrt{965}}{2*16}=\frac{100-4\sqrt{965}}{32}
$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-100)+4\sqrt{965}}{2*16}=\frac{100+4\sqrt{965}}{32}
