Calculus 2: Parametric Equations (8 of 20) Parametric Equations are NOT Unique

In this video I will show by example that parametric equation are not unique.

Next video in the series can be seen at:

1:55 Small error: the speaker writes +4 which should be -4. So y = (t^2)/8 - t/4 - 31/8.

Dear sir
1:55 you wrote +4 instead of -4. It is a mistake

[liang_white]

If you graph y = t^2/8-4 and y=1/8t^2-1/4t+33/8. There both are different functions?

Thank you so much! This made no sense to me when I read it in the book and even when I heard it in class. Was stuck on this for 3 days. Thanks for "unsticking" me! :-)
