x=e^(2t)

y=t+1

t= ( lnx ) / 2

y= ( lnx ) / 2 + 1

or

blah

or

y= +- ( ( lnx ) / 2 + 1 ) ?

Why did you add +- ?
 
what i meant was for t<0 how to represent the graph in terms of y and x
 
x=e^(-2t)
y=t+1

-2t=lnx
y=1-lnx/2
i suppose

Is this the same question? How did "x= e^{2t}" become x= e^{-2t}?

y=1-lnx/2

Assuming you really did mean x= e^{-2t}, yes, that is correct.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
