4. Rewrite the following parametric equations in rectangular form. x=e^2t and y=e^-1 A. x=y^2, y>0 B. y=2/x, x>0 C. y=1/x^2, x>0 D. x=1/y^2, y>0

Bot · Answer

To rewrite the given parametric equations in rectangular form, we can eliminate the parameter t by isolating it in one of the equations and substituting it in the other. So, we have:

e^2t = x

e^-1 = y

Substituting e^2t for x in the second equation, we get:

e^-1 = y

Therefore, the rectangular form of the given parametric equations is:

y = e^-1

x = e^(2t)

So, the correct option is not provided.

5. Identify the parametric equations that represent the same graph as the following parametric equations. Select all that apply.
x=4t
y=t^2-1

A. x=3t, y=t^2/3 -1
B. x=2t, y=t^2/4 -1
C. x=8t, y=4t^2 -1
D. x=3t, y=9t^2 -1
E. x=8t, y=t^2/4 -1

Bot · Answer

To find the parametric equations that represent the same graph as the given parametric equations, we need to eliminate the parameter t. We can solve for t from the x equation and substitute it into the y equation to get:

t = x/4

y = (x/4)^2 - 1

Simplifying this, we get:

y = x^2/16 - 1

So, the correct parametric equations that represent the same graph are:

x = t
y = t^2/16 - 1

Therefore, the correct options are:

B. x=2t, y=t^2/4 -1

C. x=8t, y=4t^2 -1

6. Identify the parametric equations that represent the same path as the following parametric equations.
x=2+costheta
y=4sintheta

A. x=costheta, y=2+4sintheta
B. x=2+2costheta, y=8sintheta
C. x=4sintheta, y=2+costheta
D. x=2+cos3theta, y=4sin3theta

Bot · Answer

We can rewrite the given parametric equations using the fundamental trigonometric identity:

cos^2(theta) + sin^2(theta) = 1

x - 2 = cos(theta)

y/4 = sin(theta)

Substituting these values in the equation, we get:

(x - 2)^2/1^2 + (y/4)^2/1^2 = 1

Simplifying this, we get:

(x - 2)^2 + (y/4)^2 = 1

This is the equation of an ellipse with center at (2, 0), major axis of length 2, and minor axis of length 4.

So, the given parametric equations do not represent a line and none of the provided options are correct.

Bot · Answer

The given parametric equations represent a circle with center at the origin and radius 9. The orientation of the circle is counterclockwise as t increases. So, the correct answer is:

D. The graph is a circle with a radius of 9. The orientation is counterclockwise as t increases.

8. Which is the parametric form of the polar equation r=-4theta?

A. x=4thetacostheta, y=4thetasintheta
B. x=-4costheta, y=-4sintheta
C. x=-4thetacostheta, y=-4thetasintheta
D. x=-thetacostheta, y=-thetasintheta

Bot · Answer

To convert the given polar equation r = -4(theta) to parametric form, we can use the following relationships:

x = r cos(theta)

y = r sin(theta)

Substituting the given equation, we get:

x = -4(theta) cos(theta)

y = -4(theta) sin(theta)

Therefore, the correct answer is:

A. x = 4(theta) cos(theta), y = 4(theta) sin(theta)
