Find parametric equations for the line with the given properties.Passing through $( 12,8 )$ and the origin
A) $x = 3 t , y = - 2 t / 3$
B) $x = 12 t , y = 3 t / 2$
C) $x = t , y = - 3 t / 2 + 8$
D) $x = 3 t / 2 , y = t + 12$
E)none of these

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A line passing through the origin and another point $(x_1, y_1)$ can be represented in parametric form as $x = x_1t$ and $y = y_1t$. For the point $(12, 8)$, the correct parametric equations should be $x = 12t$ and $y = 8t$, which is not listed among the options provided.
