-\left(3+t\right)+\left(t-3\right)\times 4-13=0
Variable t cannot be equal to any of the values -3,3 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by \left(t-3\right)\left(t+3\right), the least common multiple of 3-t,3+t,9-t^{2}.
-3-t+\left(t-3\right)\times 4-13=0
To find the opposite of 3+t, find the opposite of each term.
-3-t+4t-12-13=0
Use the distributive property to multiply t-3 by 4.
-3+3t-12-13=0
Combine -t and 4t to get 3t.
-15+3t-13=0
Subtract 12 from -3 to get -15.
-28+3t=0
Subtract 13 from -15 to get -28.
3t=28
Add 28 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
t=\frac{28}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
