Question 1138246: Eliminate the parameter.
x = t + 4, y = t2 (5 points)
choices below

y = square root of x + x + 4

y = square root of quantity x minus four

y = x2 + 16

y = x2 - 8x + 16

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

x+=+t+%2B+4, y+=+t%5E2
x+=+t+%2B+4..........solve for t
t=x-4
plug in y+=+t%5E2
y+=+%28x-4%29%5E2
y+=+x%5E2-8x%2B16
