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

Divide each side by '50'.
3.19 + -3.2t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3.19' to each side of the equation.
3.19 + -3.2t + -3.19 + t2 = 0 + -3.19

Reorder the terms:
3.19 + -3.19 + -3.2t + t2 = 0 + -3.19

Combine like terms: 3.19 + -3.19 = 0.00
0.00 + -3.2t + t2 = 0 + -3.19
-3.2t + t2 = 0 + -3.19

Combine like terms: 0 + -3.19 = -3.19
-3.2t + t2 = -3.19

The t term is -3.2t.  Take half its coefficient (-1.6).
Square it (2.56) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.56' to each side of the equation.
-3.2t + 2.56 + t2 = -3.19 + 2.56

Reorder the terms:
2.56 + -3.2t + t2 = -3.19 + 2.56

Combine like terms: -3.19 + 2.56 = -0.63
2.56 + -3.2t + t2 = -0.63

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -1.6)(t + -1.6) = -0.63

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
