Find parametric equations for the following curve. Include an interval for the parameter values. The line that passes through the points (- 4, 3) and (2, - 5). oriented in the direction of increasing x.

Choose the correct set of parametric equations and interval below.

A. x = -4 + 3t, y = 3 - 4t: - 2 lessthanorequalto t lessthanorequalto 3

B. x = - 4 + 3t, y = 3 - 4t: - infinity < t < infinity

C. x = 3 - 4t, y = - 4 + 3t: - infinity < t < infinity

Answer:

A. x = -4 + 3t, y = 3 - 4t: - 2 lessthanorequalto t lessthanorequalto 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a line in two dimension passes through (-4,3) and (2,-5) oriented in the direction of increasing x

We can write the line equation in parametric form as

[tex]\frac{x-x_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{y-y_1}{y_2-y_1} \\\frac{x+4}{6} =\frac{y-3}{-8} =t\\x=-4+6t\\y = 3-8t[/tex]

The values of t when x=-4 is 0 and when x =2 is 1

So t varies from 0 to 1

If instead of t we give t' say which is t +2

then we have

t he parametric equations as

x =-4+3t and y = 3-4t

For  x=-4, t =2 and for x = 2 , t =3

So option A is right.
