Which set represents a simple parametrization for the line ?
If the position of an object is given by the implicit equation where and , which set of parametric equations best describes its motion if it follows the curve at constant horizontal velocity?
Given an ellipse defined by the equation , which parametric equations correctly describe this ellipse when parameterized by angle measure ?
x = \cos(3t), y = \sin(4t)
x = 3\cos(t), y = 4\sin(t)
x = 9\tan(t), y = 16\tan(t)
x = \sqrt{9}\cos(t), y = \sqrt{16}\sin(t)

Given that defines in terms of for all real numbers, which parametric equation could represent as a function of to ensure that the graph of versus is continuous for all real values of ?
x(t) = \sqrt{t−6}
x(t) = t - \sin(t)
x(t) = (t−6)^{-1/3}
x(t) = \frac{1}{t−6}
Given an implicitly defined function through the relation , what parametrized expression for in terms of a new parameter 'a' will correctly describe its inverse?
y(a) = \frac{a}{6}
y(a) = a + 6
y(a) = \sqrt{\frac{6}{a}}
y(a) = \frac{a^2}{6}
