To solve the given problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between the slopes The slope of the tangent to the curve at any point \((x, y)\) is given by \(\frac{dy}{dx}\). According to the problem, this slope is twice the slope of the line segment joining the point \((x, y)\) to the point \((-4, -3)\). ### Step 2: Calculate the slope of the line segment The slope of the line segment joining the points \((x, y)\) and \((-4, -3)\) can be calculated using the formula: \[ ...
