TopicParametric equations

5 The parametric equations of a curve are $$x = \ln ( t + 1 ) , \quad y = \mathrm { e } ^ { 2 t } + 2 t$$
  1. Find an expression for \(\frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} x }\) in terms of \(t\).
  2. Find the equation of the normal to the curve at the point for which \(t = 0\). Give your answer in the form \(a x + b y + c = 0\), where \(a , b\) and \(c\) are integers.
