Question 36

The curve CCC is defined by the parametric equations

x=1t+3y=2t−1t+2t>0 x = \frac{1}{t} + 3 \quad y = \frac{2t - 1}{t + 2} \quad t > 0 x=t1​+3y=t+22t−1​t>0
a.

Show that the equation of CCC can be written in the form y=g(x)y = g(x)y=g(x) where ggg is the function

g(x)=ax+bcx+dx>k g(x) = \frac{ax + b}{cx + d} \quad x > k g(x)=cx+dax+b​x>k

where a,b,c,da, b, c, da,b,c,d and kkk are integers to be found.

b.

Hence, or otherwise, state the range of ggg.
