Question

X=t/5 & y=t-1/2, find rectangular equation for the curve. Graph the curve.?

Answer 1

As written your question reads y = t - (1/2)

Assuming that this is what you do indeed mean :-

t = 5x

y = 5x - 1/2

m = 5

This is a straight line graph.

Points on graph are (0,- 1/2) , (4,39/2)

Answer 2

x = t/5

t = 5x

y = t - 1/2

y = 5x - 1/2

This is a straight line with gradient 5 going through (0, -1/2)
