Math tutorial for eliminating the parameter

The video tutorial emphasizes the importance of using algebraic methods to solve equations, even when calculators are available for visualization. The instructor explains the process of eliminating parameters algebraically and visualizing quadratic transformations. Students are expected to demonstrate their understanding by showing their algebraic work, as this will be the basis for grading.

What is the main purpose of using a calculator in this context?

Explain the process of eliminating the parameter algebraically as discussed in the text.

What does the equation y = (X - 2)² represent in terms of its graph?

How is the quadratic function being shifted according to the explanation?

What will happen if the algebraic work is not shown in the assignment?
