Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-9 + 7.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
-9 + 7.5t + 9 + t2 = 0 + 9

Reorder the terms:
-9 + 9 + 7.5t + t2 = 0 + 9

Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 0
0 + 7.5t + t2 = 0 + 9
7.5t + t2 = 0 + 9

Combine like terms: 0 + 9 = 9
7.5t + t2 = 9

The t term is 7.5t.  Take half its coefficient (3.75).
Square it (14.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '14.0625' to each side of the equation.
7.5t + 14.0625 + t2 = 9 + 14.0625

Reorder the terms:
14.0625 + 7.5t + t2 = 9 + 14.0625

Combine like terms: 9 + 14.0625 = 23.0625
14.0625 + 7.5t + t2 = 23.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + 3.75)(t + 3.75) = 23.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.802343178
