Answer:


(3)/(t - 1)

Explanation:


(t^2 - 2t - 3)/(t^2 - 1) \cdot (3t - 3)/(t^2 - 4t + 3) =

Start by factoring every numerator and denominator.


= ((t - 3)(t + 1))/((t + 1)(t - 1)) \cdot (3(t - 1))/((t - 3)(t - 1))

Every factor that exists in both a numerator and denominator can be eliminated.


= (1)/(t - 1) \cdot (3)/(1)

Multiply numerators together. Multiply denominators together.


= (3)/(t - 1)
