X + 4y⁴ + 2y² + 5 = 0

The curve above can be parameterized as which of the following pairs of equations? Select the correct answer below:

1. y(t) = t + 5, x(t) = -4t⁴ - 2t²
2. y(t) = -4t⁴ - 2t² - 5, x(t) = t
3. y(t) = t, x(t) = -4t⁴ - 2t² - 5
4. y(t) = t⁴, x(t) = -4t⁴ - 2t² - 5
5. y(t) = t, x(t) = 4t⁴ + 2t² + 5
