Answer

$f(t)=(t+3) e^{-t}$

Work Step by Step

We are given that $x=t-3$ Re-write as: $t=x+3$ When $a$ has a positive value then , shift the function to the right for $a$ units and when $a$ has a negative value then , shift the function to the left for $a$ units Now, $f(t-3) =t e^{-(t-3)} $ and $f(x)=(x+3) e^{-x}$ So, we have the independent variable $t$ is: $f(t)=(t+3) e^{-t}$
