What's on the worksheet
- Eliminate the parameter; in each pair t is any real number.x = 5 - 2t, y = 3t + 4x = \dfrac{t}{3}, y = 2 - t^2x = 2t - 1, y = t^3 + 1x = e^t, y = 2t - 1
- Eliminate the parameter from x = 3 - 2 t, y = 5 + 4 t, 0 ≤ t ≤ π2.
- Consider x = 2 t, y = ² t, 0 ≤ t ≤ 2π.
- In each pair below t is any real number.
- Eliminate the parameter from x = 3 t, y = 2 t, 0 < t < π, using the Pythagorean identity that relates t and t.
- Consider x = t + t, y = 2t, 0 ≤ t ≤ 2π.
