Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
2.5 + 4.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2.5' to each side of the equation.
2.5 + 4.5t + -2.5 + t2 = 0 + -2.5

Reorder the terms:
2.5 + -2.5 + 4.5t + t2 = 0 + -2.5

Combine like terms: 2.5 + -2.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 4.5t + t2 = 0 + -2.5
4.5t + t2 = 0 + -2.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -2.5 = -2.5
4.5t + t2 = -2.5

The t term is 4.5t.  Take half its coefficient (2.25).
Square it (5.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '5.0625' to each side of the equation.
4.5t + 5.0625 + t2 = -2.5 + 5.0625

Reorder the terms:
5.0625 + 4.5t + t2 = -2.5 + 5.0625

Combine like terms: -2.5 + 5.0625 = 2.5625
5.0625 + 4.5t + t2 = 2.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + 2.25)(t + 2.25) = 2.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.600781059

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(t + 2.25) equal to 1.600781059 and -1.600781059.
