4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '4'.
-1.25 + -1.25t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.25' to each side of the equation.
-1.25 + -1.25t + 1.25 + t2 = 0 + 1.25

Reorder the terms:
-1.25 + 1.25 + -1.25t + t2 = 0 + 1.25

Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00
0.00 + -1.25t + t2 = 0 + 1.25
-1.25t + t2 = 0 + 1.25

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.25 = 1.25
-1.25t + t2 = 1.25

The t term is -1.25t.  Take half its coefficient (-0.625).
Square it (0.390625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.390625' to each side of the equation.
-1.25t + 0.390625 + t2 = 1.25 + 0.390625

Reorder the terms:
0.390625 + -1.25t + t2 = 1.25 + 0.390625

Combine like terms: 1.25 + 0.390625 = 1.640625
0.390625 + -1.25t + t2 = 1.640625
