loser66 · Answer

isolate t in both x and y
let them equal
for example, x = -2-t --> t = -2 -x
do the same with y 
let them equal to get the result

anonymous · Answer

ok so I got t=-2-x and t=-2+y/2. then I had them equal to each other and got -2x=y. what would I do after that?

dat sit. your vector has property that y = -2x, that is the whole line y = -2x. if x =0, y=0 if x =1, y =-2 so far and so on.
