a+b=-3 ab=-4
To solve the equation, factor t^{2}-3t-4 using formula t^{2}+\left(a+b\right)t+ab=\left(t+a\right)\left(t+b\right). To find a and b, set up a system to be solved.
1,-4 2,-2
Since ab is negative, a and b have the opposite signs. Since a+b is negative, the negative number has greater absolute value than the positive. List all such integer pairs that give product -4.
1-4=-3 2-2=0
Calculate the sum for each pair.
a=-4 b=1
The solution is the pair that gives sum -3.
\left(t-4\right)\left(t+1\right)
Rewrite factored expression \left(t+a\right)\left(t+b\right) using the obtained values.
t=4 t=-1
To find equation solutions, solve t-4=0 and t+1=0.
a+b=-3 ab=1\left(-4\right)=-4
To solve the equation, factor the left hand side by grouping. First, left hand side needs to be rewritten as t^{2}+at+bt-4. To find a and b, set up a system to be solved.

\left(t^{2}-4t\right)+\left(t-4\right)
Rewrite t^{2}-3t-4 as \left(t^{2}-4t\right)+\left(t-4\right).
t\left(t-4\right)+t-4
Factor out t in t^{2}-4t.
\left(t-4\right)\left(t+1\right)
Factor out common term t-4 by using distributive property.
t=4 t=-1
To find equation solutions, solve t-4=0 and t+1=0.
t^{2}-3t-4=0
All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.
t=\frac{-\left(-3\right)±\sqrt{\left(-3\right)^{2}-4\left(-4\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, -3 for b, and -4 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
t=\frac{-\left(-3\right)±\sqrt{9-4\left(-4\right)}}{2}
Square -3.
t=\frac{-\left(-3\right)±\sqrt{9+16}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -4.
t=\frac{-\left(-3\right)±\sqrt{25}}{2}
Add 9 to 16.
t=\frac{-\left(-3\right)±5}{2}
Take the square root of 25.
t=\frac{3±5}{2}
The opposite of -3 is 3.
t=\frac{8}{2}
Now solve the equation t=\frac{3±5}{2} when ± is plus. Add 3 to 5.
t=4
Divide 8 by 2.
t=-\frac{2}{2}
Now solve the equation t=\frac{3±5}{2} when ± is minus. Subtract 5 from 3.
t=-1
Divide -2 by 2.
t=4 t=-1
The equation is now solved.
t^{2}-3t-4=0
Quadratic equations such as this one can be solved by completing the square. In order to complete the square, the equation must first be in the form x^{2}+bx=c.
t^{2}-3t-4-\left(-4\right)=-\left(-4\right)
Add 4 to both sides of the equation.
t^{2}-3t=-\left(-4\right)
Subtracting -4 from itself leaves 0.
t^{2}-3t=4
Subtract -4 from 0.
t^{2}-3t+\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}=4+\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}
Divide -3, the coefficient of the x term, by 2 to get -\frac{3}{2}. Then add the square of -\frac{3}{2} to both sides of the equation. This step makes the left hand side of the equation a perfect square.
t^{2}-3t+\frac{9}{4}=4+\frac{9}{4}
Square -\frac{3}{2} by squaring both the numerator and the denominator of the fraction.
t^{2}-3t+\frac{9}{4}=\frac{25}{4}
Add 4 to \frac{9}{4}.
\left(t-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{25}{4}
Factor t^{2}-3t+\frac{9}{4}. In general, when x^{2}+bx+c is a perfect square, it can always be factored as \left(x+\frac{b}{2}\right)^{2}.
\sqrt{\left(t-\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{25}{4}}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
t-\frac{3}{2}=\frac{5}{2} t-\frac{3}{2}=-\frac{5}{2}
Simplify.
t=4 t=-1
Add \frac{3}{2} to both sides of the equation.
