Solving for variable 't'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-1 + -0.2t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -0.2t + 1 + t2 = 0 + 1

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 1 + -0.2t + t2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -0.2t + t2 = 0 + 1
-0.2t + t2 = 0 + 1

Combine like terms: 0 + 1 = 1
-0.2t + t2 = 1

The t term is -0.2t.  Take half its coefficient (-0.1).
Square it (0.01) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.01' to each side of the equation.
-0.2t + 0.01 + t2 = 1 + 0.01

Reorder the terms:
0.01 + -0.2t + t2 = 1 + 0.01

Combine like terms: 1 + 0.01 = 1.01
0.01 + -0.2t + t2 = 1.01

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -0.1)(t + -0.1) = 1.01

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.004987562

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(t + -0.1) equal to 1.004987562 and -1.004987562.

Subproblem 1

t + -0.1 = 1.004987562 Simplifying t + -0.1 = 1.004987562 Reorder the terms: -0.1 + t = 1.004987562 Solving -0.1 + t = 1.004987562 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.1' to each side of the equation. -0.1 + 0.1 + t = 1.004987562 + 0.1 Combine like terms: -0.1 + 0.1 = 0.0 0.0 + t = 1.004987562 + 0.1 t = 1.004987562 + 0.1 Combine like terms: 1.004987562 + 0.1 = 1.104987562 t = 1.104987562 Simplifying t = 1.104987562

Subproblem 2

t + -0.1 = -1.004987562 Simplifying t + -0.1 = -1.004987562 Reorder the terms: -0.1 + t = -1.004987562 Solving -0.1 + t = -1.004987562 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.1' to each side of the equation. -0.1 + 0.1 + t = -1.004987562 + 0.1 Combine like terms: -0.1 + 0.1 = 0.0 0.0 + t = -1.004987562 + 0.1 t = -1.004987562 + 0.1 Combine like terms: -1.004987562 + 0.1 = -0.904987562 t = -0.904987562 Simplifying t = -0.904987562
