Answer

$x=1+t \\ y =t \\ z=-t$

Work Step by Step

$v(t)=\dfrac{dr}{dt}$ or, $v(t)= e^t i+\cos t j -\dfrac{k}{1-t}$ We have: $t=0$ This implies that $v(t)=\dfrac{dr}{dt}= e^{0} i+\cos (0) j -\dfrac{k}{1-0}=i+j-k$ and $r(0)=e^{0} i+\sin (0) j +\ln (1-0) k =i$ So, the parametric equations of the line at $(1,0,0)$ can be expressed as follows: $x=1+t \\ y =t \\ z=-t$
