SOLUTION: If the parametric equations of a curve are y=t-e^t and x=t+e^t ,find the cartesian equation of the curve

Question 1202996: If the parametric equations of a curve are y=t-e^t and x=t+e^t ,find the cartesian
equation of the curve
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20064) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

when a variable occurs both in and out of an exponent, the problem is not
algebraic, and requires special functions to solve it. In this case, the
Lambert W function.  Have you studied that?  If not, this is too advanced
a problem for you.
