Question

consider the following parametric equations:

( x = cos(\theta) ) and ( y = 3cos(\theta)+1 )

step 1 of 2: eliminate the parameter ( \theta ). please write your answer in simplest form solved for ( y ).

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute \(x\) into \(y\)

Given \(x = \cos(\theta)\), substitute \(x\) into the equation \(y = 3\cos(\theta)+1\).
So, \(y = 3x + 1\).

Answer:

\(y = 3x+1\)
