We are given two planes:

1. \( x + y + z = 9 \)
2. \( x + 5y + 5z = 9 \)

We are tasked with finding parametric equations for the line of intersection of these planes using the parameter \( t \).

### Step 1: Solve the system of equations

We will express two variables in terms of the third. Let’s subtract the first equation from the second:

\[
(x + 5y + 5z) - (x + y + z) = 9 - 9
\]

Simplifying this:

\[
(5y + 5z) - (y + z) = 0
\]

\[
4y + 4z = 0
\]

Dividing by 4:

\[
y + z = 0
\]

Thus, \( z = -y \).

### Step 2: Parametric equations

Now substitute \( z = -y \) into the first plane equation \( x + y + z = 9 \):

\[
x + y + (-y) = 9
\]

Simplifying:

\[
x = 9
\]

So, the parametric equations for the line of intersection are:

\[
x = 9, \quad y = t, \quad z = -t
\]

where \( t \) is the parameter.

### Final Parametric Equations:
\[
x = 9, \quad y = t, \quad z = -t
\]
