Solution for 60=3.5t-.5t^2 equation:


Simplifying
60 = 3.5t + -0.5t2

Solving
60 = 3.5t + -0.5t2

Solving for variable 't'.

Reorder the terms:
60 + -3.5t + 0.5t2 = 3.5t + -3.5t + -0.5t2 + 0.5t2

Combine like terms: 3.5t + -3.5t = 0.0
60 + -3.5t + 0.5t2 = 0.0 + -0.5t2 + 0.5t2
60 + -3.5t + 0.5t2 = -0.5t2 + 0.5t2

Combine like terms: -0.5t2 + 0.5t2 = 0.0
60 + -3.5t + 0.5t2 = 0.0

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

Divide each side by '0.5'.
120 + -7t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-120' to each side of the equation.
120 + -7t + -120 + t2 = 0 + -120

Reorder the terms:
120 + -120 + -7t + t2 = 0 + -120

Combine like terms: 120 + -120 = 0
0 + -7t + t2 = 0 + -120
-7t + t2 = 0 + -120

Combine like terms: 0 + -120 = -120
-7t + t2 = -120

The t term is -7t.  Take half its coefficient (-3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
-7t + 12.25 + t2 = -120 + 12.25

Reorder the terms:
12.25 + -7t + t2 = -120 + 12.25

Combine like terms: -120 + 12.25 = -107.75
12.25 + -7t + t2 = -107.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -3.5)(t + -3.5) = -107.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
