I'm doing something wrong here I think... Q: Eliminate the parameter to find a Cartesian equation: x = 1 − t\(^2\), y = t − 5, −2 \(\le\) t \(\le\) 2 A: Using substitution... x = 1-(y+5)\(^2\) "-y\(^2\)-10y-24" is showing as incorrect on this homework thingy +1 medal if you can fix my error :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh are you SERIOUS?! It took this on the second try: "x=-y\(^2\)-10y-24 Arg! Computers are soooo literal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there is nothing wrong with that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's what the error was, I was fiddling around with it here and yeah... computers... -_-

What did you put in your first try?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@terenzreignz exactly what's in the quotes... It wanted an "x=" too

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Well, you're right... COMPUTERS >.< So picky :D
