Question

(a) find parametric equations for the line that passes through the point (−2, 5) and is parallel to the vector <3, −8>. (enter your answer as a comma-separated list of equations where x and y are in terms of the parameter t.)

Answer 1

= <-2 +3t, 5 -8t>

Multiply the direction vector by the parameter and add it to the given point.
