Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '30'.
-0.1333333333 + -0.5t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.1333333333' to each side of the equation.
-0.1333333333 + -0.5t + 0.1333333333 + t2 = 0 + 0.1333333333

Reorder the terms:
-0.1333333333 + 0.1333333333 + -0.5t + t2 = 0 + 0.1333333333

Combine like terms: -0.1333333333 + 0.1333333333 = 0.0000000000
0.0000000000 + -0.5t + t2 = 0 + 0.1333333333
-0.5t + t2 = 0 + 0.1333333333

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.1333333333 = 0.1333333333
-0.5t + t2 = 0.1333333333

The t term is -0.5t.  Take half its coefficient (-0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
-0.5t + 0.0625 + t2 = 0.1333333333 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.5t + t2 = 0.1333333333 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: 0.1333333333 + 0.0625 = 0.1958333333
0.0625 + -0.5t + t2 = 0.1958333333
