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

Divide each side by '-8'.
-0.875 + 1.875t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.875' to each side of the equation.
-0.875 + 1.875t + 0.875 + t2 = 0 + 0.875

Reorder the terms:
-0.875 + 0.875 + 1.875t + t2 = 0 + 0.875

Combine like terms: -0.875 + 0.875 = 0.000
0.000 + 1.875t + t2 = 0 + 0.875
1.875t + t2 = 0 + 0.875

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.875 = 0.875
1.875t + t2 = 0.875

The t term is 1.875t.  Take half its coefficient (0.9375).
Square it (0.87890625) and add it to both sides.
