Question

Transcribed Image Text:It can be shown that the parametric equations
x = x1 + (x2 – x1)t, y = y1 + (y2 – yı)t,
where 0 <t < 1, describe the line segment that joins the points P (x1, y1) and P2(x2, y2).
Use this fact to find parametric equations with 0 <t <1 to represent the line segment from
(x1, Y1) = (-2,7) to (x2, y2) = (3, – 1).
X =
y =
