A curve is defined by the parametric equations x = 3 - 4t, and y = 1 + 2/t. Find dy/dx in terms of t.

At first glance, this looks quite tricky, as usually when we are asked to find dy/dx, we have one equation, but here we have 2.So in this case, we need to use the statement that dy/dx = (dy/dt) * (dt/dx)Then...
