Identify the parametric equations: x(t) = -t + 1 and y(t) = t^2.
Determine the range of t, which is -2 ≤ t ≤ 2.
Calculate key points by substituting values of t within the range into the parametric equations. For example, for t = -2, calculate x(-2) and y(-2). Repeat for t = -1, 0, 1, and 2.
Plot the calculated points (x(t), y(t)) on the coordinate plane.
Connect the points in the order of increasing t to show the orientation of the curve, indicating the direction with arrows.
