Explanation:
A “parametric equation” is just a calculus term to say that you have an equation in terms of “parameters”, instead of the original variables. Using the standard line slope-intercept formula we calculate the intercept for this particular set of terms.
The final linear equation is:
The graph of any function can be parameterized. For, if y = f(x) then let t = x so that x = t, y = f(t).
