Question

Eliminate the parameter.

x = 5t, y = t + 8

Answer 1

y = t + 8 implies t = y - 8. Substitution to x = 5t gives x = 5(y - 8).

Answer 2

Well It has to be in the form of y=??? can you help with that?

Answer 3

Sure.

x = 5(y - 8)
x = 5y - 40
-5y = -x - 40
\(y = \frac{1}{5}x+8\)

Answer 4

Thanks:)

Answer 5
