ugh, math is NOT one of my strong points
you do know the 83/83+ has a built-in equation solver that is much more powerful than anything one can write in basic? if you can rearrange the variables to make the equation equal to 0, you can put the equation in the solver and let the calculator handle the rest. it will only solve for "x" but "x" is equivalent to "t" in your case.
furthermore, if you have the pc-to-calc link cable, i'm pretty sure either TI themselves or a third party at ticalc.org has released a full-blown equation solver that you can flash onto the calc. you might want to look into that.
i'm -seriously- retarded when it comes to figuring out anything more complex than simple addition and subtraction, so sorry i can't help you with this particular situation
