When there is a third variable, a third parameter on which
and
depend, parametric equations can be used.
To graph parametric equations by plotting points, make a table with three columns labeled
and
Choose values for
in increasing order. Plot the last two columns for
and

When graphing a parametric curve by plotting points, note the associated
t -values and show arrows on the graph indicating the orientation of the curve. See
[link] and
[link] .
Parametric equations allow the direction or the orientation of the curve to be shown on the graph. Equations that are not functions can be graphed and used in many applications involving motion. See
[link] .
Projectile motion depends on two parametric equations:
and
Initial velocity is symbolized as
represents the initial angle of the object when thrown, and
represents the height at which the object is propelled.

What are two methods used to graph parametric equations?
plotting points with the orientation arrow and a graphing calculator
what's the difference between a firm and an industry
Abdul
firm is the unit which transform inputs to output where as industry contain combination of firms with similar production 😅😅

Suppose the demand function that a firm faces shifted from
Qd 120 3P
to
Qd 90 3P
and the supply function has shifted from
QS
20 2P
to
QS
10 2P .
a) Find the effect of this change on price and quantity.
b) Which of the changes in demand and supply is higher?
Demand curve shows that how supply and others conditions affect on demand of a particular thing and what percent demand increase whith increase of supply of goods
