Use the isolate funciton. (The solve function is also an option.)
syms a t v_0 x_t x_0
Eqn = x_t - x_0 == v_0*t + a*t^2/2
Eqn = 
Eqn = isolate(Eqn, t)
Eqn =

What about the second solution of the quadratic ?

Solve does give both
syms xt x0 v0 t a
eqn = xt-x0 == v0*t+1/2*a*t^2
eqn = 
St = solve(eqn,t)
St =
