You can put this solution on YOUR website!
+4%2Asqrt%28+t+%2B+3+%29+=+6+
+sqrt%28+t+%2B+3+%29+=+6%2F4+
+sqrt%28+t+%2B+3+%29+=+3%2F2+
Square both sides
+t+%2B+3+=+9%2F4+
+t+=+9%2F4+-+12%2F4+
+t+=+-3%2F4+
check answer:
+sqrt%28+-3%2F4+%2B+3+%29+=+3%2F2+
+sqrt%28+-3%2F4+%2B+12%2F4+%29+=+3%2F2+
+sqrt%28+9%2F4+%29+=+3%2F2+
+3%2F2+=+3%2F2+
There is also +sqrt%28+9%2F4+%29+=+-3%2F2+
which is not a solution to problem
