    Typically Standard Form is whatever=0

    125 = 105t + -4.9t^2

    add 4.9t^2 subtract 105t

    4.9t^2 -105t +125 = 0

    ((typically the first factor is positive))

    4.9t^2-105t+125 = 0

    as solving equation is :

    t = (-b±√b^2-4ac)2a

    a being the value of numerical part associated to t^2

    b being the value of numerical part associated to t

    c the third term

    it is wise to arrange equation in such a way b is negative so that -b becomes a positive value and (-b)^2 is positive as well

    -4.9t² + 105t - 125 = 0
