Simplifying
4 = t + t2

Solving
4 = t + t2

Solving for variable 't'.

Reorder the terms:
4 + -1t + -1t2 = t + -1t + t2 + -1t2

Combine like terms: t + -1t = 0
4 + -1t + -1t2 = 0 + t2 + -1t2
4 + -1t + -1t2 = t2 + -1t2

Combine like terms: t2 + -1t2 = 0
4 + -1t + -1t2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-4 + t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + t + 4 + t2 = 0 + 4

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 4 + t + t2 = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + t + t2 = 0 + 4
t + t2 = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: 0 + 4 = 4
t + t2 = 4

The t term is t.  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.
 + 0.25 + t2 = 4 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + t2 = 4 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 4 + 0.25 = 4.25
1.25 + t2 = 4.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + 0.5)(t + 0.5) = 4.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.061552813

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(t + 0.5) equal to 2.061552813 and -2.061552813.

Subproblem 1

t + 0.5 = 2.061552813 Simplifying t + 0.5 = 2.061552813 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + t = 2.061552813 Solving 0.5 + t = 2.061552813 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 = 2.061552813 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + t = 2.061552813 + -0.5 t = 2.061552813 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 2.061552813 + -0.5 = 1.561552813 t = 1.561552813 Simplifying t = 1.561552813

Subproblem 2

t + 0.5 = -2.061552813 Simplifying t + 0.5 = -2.061552813 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + t = -2.061552813 Solving 0.5 + t = -2.061552813 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 = -2.061552813 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + t = -2.061552813 + -0.5 t = -2.061552813 + -0.5 Combine like terms: -2.061552813 + -0.5 = -2.561552813 t = -2.561552813 Simplifying t = -2.561552813

Solution
