Question
Answered step-by-step
(a) Show that the parametric equations$ x = x_1 + (x_2 - x_1)t $ $ \quad y = y_1 + (y_2 - y_1)t $where $ 0 \leqslant t \leqslant 1 $, describe the line segment that joins the points $ P_1(x_1, y_1) $ and $ P_2(x_2, y_2) $.(b) Find parametric equations to represent the line segment from $ (-2, 7) $ to $ (3, -1) $.

In mathematics, a graph is a representation of a set of objects where some pairs of the objects are in some sense "related". The objects correspond to mathematical abstractions called "vertices" or "nodes", and the relations between them are represented by mathematical abstractions called "edges" or "arcs". The basic notion of a graph was developed by the 17th-century French mathematician Pierre de Fermat, and the term "graph" was coined by the 19th-century mathematician James Joseph Sylvester. The more general mathematical concept of a graph "in which any kind of relation between elements of the set is expressed as an edge, is called a network" (Kolmogorov, "1956, p. 111"). In other words, an undirected graph is a graph in which the edges have no direction associated with them. The most familiar examples of graphs are the graphs of equations. In general, the vertices of a graph can represent concepts and the edges can represent real-valued functions on the concepts, so one can speak of the graph as a function's graph or of the edge as a function's edge.

Polar coordinates are a two-dimensional coordinate system that specifies a point in terms of distance from a reference direction (the pole) and angle from a reference direction (the polar axis).

but a showed that the pair might tricky Questions actually go to x one plus x two minus x one times T Why is it called y one plus y two minus y Juan Castillo? When Tears Between zero and one describes a live segment that joins the points you want pee too, for parts first that we can find it. The question off the line halfway through it. The point he won and pee, too. Direction Wachter of the line It is x two minus X Juan. Why Two? Linus What I want. So we're half the question of on the line is ex client is equal to ex Juan? Why one plus he'd hands x two months x one wide to minus y Want not decide what she is equal to. Zero. Why, it's the call to x one y one. When he is going to want ex lie, it's equal to Act two. Why two so behalf? But she is between there a lot. So this equation this crabs the line segment that joins the points you want on P two I have to be find the Parametric equations is to represent the line psych might from negative to someone. Two, three, two, one from a half x is equal to you're real attacks one by one. It's the call to connected to someone. Act too wide, too. It's the culture green. Negative one half X is equal to negative, too. US off comes, too. Why is they told you? Someone minus eight. Castillo. This is a monetary question two that represents the life segment from negative to seven two. Three point three two one.
