<h2>Answer:</h2>

y= $\frac{3}{2}$ *x+4.5

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a slope and a point. That is why we will use point slope form.

The default equation is:

(y-a)=m*(x-b)

a is the y coordinate of our point and b is the x coordinate of our point

m is the slope.

We will plug in the values.

(y-10.5)=3/2*(x-4)

Now we just manipulate the equation

y= $\frac{3}{2}$ *x+4.5

$(sec x - tan x)^2 \\ \\ = sec^2x - 2 sec x tan x + tan^2 x \\ \\ =(1+tan^2 x) - 2 sec x tan x +tan^2 x \\ \\ =1 - 2 sec x tan x + 2 tan^2 x \\ \\ = 1 - 2tan x(sec x - tan x) \\ \\ =1 - \frac{2 sin x}{cos x} (\frac{1-sin x}{cos x}) \\ \\ = 1 - \frac{2 sin x (1-sin x)}{cos^2 x} \\ \\ =1 - \frac{2 sin x (1-sin x)}{1-sin^2 x} \\ \\ =1 - \frac{2 sin x (1-sin x)}{(1-sin x)(1+sin x)} \\ \\ =1-\frac{2 sin x}{1+sin x}$
