Question

Find equation to the given value of the curve x=t^5+1, y=t^6+t, and t=-1. please help I keep getting y=-1.4x and it is incorrect.

Answer 1

Well for the function of x we have x=t^5+1 and we know t= -1

So you plug in -1 instead of the t and you will get x=(-1)^5+1
Now just resolve that equation to get the value of x

x = (-1)^5+1 = -1+1 = 0 So x=0

Do the same with y and you’ll get y=2
