Answer:

1/9

Explanation:

1) simplify the expression

Group like terms: (2-5-3) + 1/t = 3

Simplify the arithmetic: -6+1/t=3

2) Isolate the t

Multiply to both sides by t: -6+1/t=3t

Expand the parentheses: -6t+1t/t=3t

Simplify the left side: -6t + 1 = 3t

3) Group all t terms on the left side of the equation

Subtract 3t from both sides: -6t+1-3t=3t-3t

Group like terms: -6t-3t+1=3t-3t

Simplify the arithmetic: -9t+1=3t-3t

Simplify the arithmetic: -9t+1=0t

Simplify the right side: -9t+1=0

4. Group all constants on the right side of the equation

Subtract 1 from both sides: -9t+1-1=0-1

Simplify the arithmetic: -9t=0-1

Simplify the arithmetic: -9t=-1

5. Isolate the t

Divide both sides by-9: -9t/-9=-1/-9

Cancel out the negatives: 9t/9=-1/-9

Simplify the fraction:t=-1/-9

Cancel out the negatives: t=1/9
