$$t=-\frac{d p}{d-p}  $$

anonymous · Answer

$$\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{d} - \frac{1}{p}$$$$\implies \frac{1}{t} = \frac{p}{dp} - \frac{d}{dp}$$$$\implies \frac{1}{t} = {p - d \over dp} $$$$\implies t = {dp \over p-d}$$

Though what rob said is also the same thing.. Just more 'simplified' without the extra negative.

anonymous · Answer

Yes, I agree.  I will try to conform next time.

Thank you for your observation.
