You roll two marbles on a flat surface at time t = 0. The position of the first marble can be described by the parametric functions: y(t) = 3(√(t/2)) + 1 and x(t) =2t. The position of the second marble can be described by the parametric functions: y(t) = 2^t and x(t) = t^2. The marbles will meet at two distinct times. Find the equation of the line that passes through both points at which the marbles meet.
