How to solve polynomial equation with parameter?

Question

I have a polynomial equation in x with an additional parameter in it. My goal is to solve it with R such that I have x on one side, and the parameter terms on the other. Here is a simplified example:

Now, I would like R to come up with:

How to do it?

I don't think that R is what you want to use for this kind of thing. Mathematic or Maple are better suited. — blakeoft, Oct 23 '17 at 19:26
Did you mean Mathematica? Do you know any free software to do it with? — Joe, Oct 23 '17 at 19:47
Yes, oops. I meant Mathematica. Glad there is actually an R package for this though. — blakeoft, Oct 24 '17 at 14:50

You can do it by using Ryacas package likes the following:

require("Ryacas")
x <- Sym("x")
t <- Sym("t")
yacas("Solve(4*x^2*t == 3, x)")

Know more about this package in this link.
