Answer:

7y = x + 28

Explanation:

Given x = 7t and y = t + 4

Here t is the parameter Now to remove it express one of it in terms of the variables (like x or y)

Given x = 7t

from this we can write
t=(x)/(7)

Now substitute this value in the second equation

y = t + 4


y=(x)/(7)+4

Therefore the parameter is eliminated.
