Question
Find parametric equations for the line that passes through the point $P$ and is parallel to the vector $\mathbf{v} .$$$P(1,0,-2), \quad \mathbf{v}=2 \mathbf{i}-5 \mathbf{k}$$
Step 1
Given $\mathbf{v}=2 \mathbf{i}-5 \mathbf{k}$, we can write this as $\mathbf{v} = \langle 2, 0, -5 \rangle$. Show more…
