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

Divide each side by '16'.
-0.3125 + 0.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.3125' to each side of the equation.
-0.3125 + 0.5t + 0.3125 + t2 = 0 + 0.3125

Reorder the terms:
-0.3125 + 0.3125 + 0.5t + t2 = 0 + 0.3125

Combine like terms: -0.3125 + 0.3125 = 0.0000
0.0000 + 0.5t + t2 = 0 + 0.3125
0.5t + t2 = 0 + 0.3125

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.3125 = 0.3125
0.5t + t2 = 0.3125

The t term is 0.5t.  Take half its coefficient (0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
0.5t + 0.0625 + t2 = 0.3125 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + 0.5t + t2 = 0.3125 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 0.3125 + 0.0625 = 0.375
0.0625 + 0.5t + t2 = 0.375
