For each curve, plug in the given point (x,y) and check if the equality holds. For example:

(I) (2, 3) does lie on x^2+xy-y^2=1 since 2^2 + 2*3 - 3^2 = 4 + 6 - 9 = 1.

For part (a), compute the derivative \frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}, and evaluate it for the given point (x,y). This is the slope of the tangent line at the point. For example:

(I) The derivative is

x^2+xy-y^2=1\overset{\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}}{\implies}2x+x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+y-2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2x+y}{2y-x}

so the slope of the tangent at (2, 3) is

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}(2,3)=\dfrac74

and its equation is then

y-3=\dfrac74(x-2)\implies y=\dfrac74x-\dfrac12

For part (b), recall that normal lines are perpendicular to tangent lines, so their slopes are negative reciprocals of the slopes of the tangents, -\frac1{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}}. For example:

(I) The tangent has slope 7/4, so the normal has slope -4/7. Then the normal line has equation

y-3=-\dfrac47(x-2)\implies y=-\dfrac47x+\dfrac{29}7

Write the equation of the line that passes through (-4, 8) and is parallel to the line that passes through (2, 1) and (-2, -1).
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,1), (-2,-1)

slope(m) = (-1-1) / (-2 - 2) = -2/-4 = 1/2

parallel lines will have the same slope

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 1/2

(-4,8)...x = -4 and y = 8

now sub and find b, the y int

8 = 1/2(-4) + b

8 = -2 + b

8 + 2 = b

10 = b

so ur equation is : y = 1/2x + 10 <==
