10=40-16t^2

Solution for 10=40-16t^2 equation:

10=40-16t^2

We move all terms to the left:

10-(40-16t^2)=0

We get rid of parentheses

16t^2-40+10=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

16t^2-30=0

a = 16; b = 0; c = -30;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·16·(-30)
Δ = 1920
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1920}=\sqrt{64*30}=\sqrt{64}*\sqrt{30}=8\sqrt{30}$
$t_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-8\sqrt{30}}{2*16}=\frac{0-8\sqrt{30}}{32}
=-\frac{8\sqrt{30}}{32}
=-\frac{\sqrt{30}}{4}
$
$t_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+8\sqrt{30}}{2*16}=\frac{0+8\sqrt{30}}{32}
=\frac{8\sqrt{30}}{32}
=\frac{\sqrt{30}}{4}
