The points A and B have coordinates (3, 4) and (7, 6) respectively. The straight line l passes through A and is perpendicular to AB. Find an equation for l, giving your answer in the form ax + by + c = 0, where a, b and c are integers.

For the line passing through A and B: m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (-6-4)/(7-3) = -5/2

For the perpendicular line: m = -1/(-5/2) = 2/5 

y - y1 = m*(x - x1)  >>  y - 4 = (2/5)*(x - 3)  >>...

Find the gradient of the tangent to the curve with the equation y = (3x^4 - 18)/x at the point where x = 3

y = (3x- 18)/x

The gradient of a tangent to a curve is equal to dy/dx 

However, we must simplify this equation before we can differentiate it;

y = 3x3 - 18/x =...
