Step 1
Given equation is
x(t)=t,y(t)=t3
Step2
To sketch the curve let convert it into Cartesian form
Put t=x in y=t3
y=x3
Step3
Graph of curve Cis as shown

Step4
b)
vector-valued function f(t) associated with this parameterization of the curve C.
f(t)=t3
Step5
c) the velocity vector and the speed of f(t) at t=1.
f(t)=3t2
Put t=1
f(t)=3t2
f(t)=3×12
f(t)=3
