Consider the following equation. (y - x)² + 2 = xy - 3 Check that the point (2, 3) lies on the curve. Then, viewing the curve as a contour of f(x, y), use grad f(2, 3) to find a vector normal to the curve at (2, 3). Use your answer above to find an equation for the tangent line to the curve at (2, 3).
