x=t-4 y= 3/t+2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

explain what? do you want to remove t?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is a parametric equation. so for each value of t you can get x and y separately.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, okay how do you get them separately?

e.g. t=4. x = 0, y = 3/6 = 1/2 and thus you get a point (0, 0.5) that lies on the curve. for t = 0, x = -4, y = 3/2 so, the point (-4, 1.5) is another point and so on. Is that what you needed to know?
