Answer

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

Work Step by Step

Since we know the velocity is: $v(t)=r'(t)=\lt \cos t, 2t+\sin t, e^{t}\gt$ and $v(0)=\lt 1,0,1 \gt$ The velocity components of $v$ are : $v_x=1,v_y=0,v_y=1$ So, the parametric equations are: $x=(1)t+0=t; y=(0) t+(-1)=-1; z=(1)t+(1)=t+1$ Hence, $x=t; y=-1; z=t+1$
