Question

Explain what it means for the coordinates of a point to satisfy the vector equation and the parametric equations of a line.

Answer 1

In any equation of any kind, a value "satisfies" the equation when it makes the equation a true statement after being substituted for the variable.

If you put the coordinates of a point into either the vector equation or the parametric equations, those equations will be "satisfied" if they become true statements after the substitution.

_____
Trivial example:
.. x = 2
is "satisfied" by x having the value 2, because
.. 2 = 2
is a true statement.
