The tangent is a straight line (y=mx+c) which shares a single point with the parabola (y²=16x) and you are given only the y-intercept (c=-½).Write the equation of the tangent of the parabola y ^ 2 = 16x if it contains a point M (0,-1/2) that does not belong to the parabola.

Please be polite. I have discovered that the formulas used here are found in Serbian sources, so I presume that is where this is from.By the way, wtf is this "BOOK"?
Please tell us more about it (and what language your copy is printed in).
