The curve C has equation: (x-y)^2 = 6x +5y -4. Use Implicit differentiation to find dy/dx in terms of x and y. The point B with coordinates (4, 2) lies on C. The normal to C at B meets the x-axis at point A. Find the x-coordinate of A.

We start off by differentiating the equation implicitly which will give us:2(x-y) -2(x-y)dy/dx = 6 + 5dy/dxThen we rearrange to get dy/dx on it's own:dy/dx = (2x-2y-6)/(2x-2y+5)
For the second part o...
