Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-1.5 + -1t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + -1t + 1.5 + t2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + -1t + t2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -1t + t2 = 0 + 1.5
-1t + t2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
-1t + t2 = 1.5

The t term is -1t.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1t + 0.25 + t2 = 1.5 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1t + t2 = 1.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75
0.25 + -1t + t2 = 1.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -0.5)(t + -0.5) = 1.75

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.322875656

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(t + -0.5) equal to 1.322875656 and -1.322875656.

Subproblem 1

t + -0.5 = 1.322875656 Simplifying t + -0.5 = 1.322875656 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + t = 1.322875656 Solving -0.5 + t = 1.322875656 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + t = 1.322875656 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + t = 1.322875656 + 0.5 t = 1.322875656 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 1.322875656 + 0.5 = 1.822875656 t = 1.822875656 Simplifying t = 1.822875656
