stephanie pose la question :
Give parameterizations r(t)=x(t)i + y(t)j for the part of the parabola y=2x-x^2, from (2,0) to (0,0). Sketch the curve using arrows to show direction for increasing t.
Essentially, i want to know how to determine the direction a particle is moving in for any curve, i have a vague idea using r'(t). Also, how do i parameterize? x=? and y=?
Ans: x=2-t, y=2(2-t)-(2-t)^2
