Explanation / Answer

2x^2 + y^2 = 34

Deriving implciitly :

4x + 2yy' = 0

4x = -2yy'

y' = -4x / (2y)

y' = -2x / y

Plug in point (3,4), we get :

y' = -2(3) / 4

y' = -3/2

So, what we have found above is the slope of tangent line

So, slope of normal line is -1 / y'

m =-1 / (-3/2)

m = -1 * (-2/3)

m = 2/3

So, slope = 2/3 and point is (3,4)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

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

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

y = (2/3)x - 2 + 4

y = (2/3)*x + 2 ----> ANSWER
