In the video game shown in the figure, an airplane flies from left to right along the path given by y = 1+ (=) and shoots bullets in the tangent direction at creatures placed along the x-axis at x=1, 2, 3, 4. From calculus, the slope of the tangent line to the path at P(1,2) is m = -1 and at G:) is m = – -. Determine whether a creature will be hit if bullets are shot when the airplane is at (a) P (b) Q EXERCISE 65
