A calculator is allowed on this question.
The functions f and g are differentiable functions of x. It is known that the derivative of f is given by f'(x) = x · ln x.
It is also known that g(2) = 3 and g′(2) = −1.
A curve in the xy-plane is defined as f(x) − (g(x))² = 4xy. Find the slope of this curve at the point (2, 3).
