Given that the line $x + 3y = 5$ is normal to the curve $y=x^2 + 5x + 6$ at a point $C$, i) find the coordinates of the point $C$ ii) find the equation of the tangent to the curve a the point $C$

Part 1) Put $y=\frac{5-x}{3}$ in the equation of curve and solve the quadratic equation for $x$ and then substitute for $y$
Now slope of your normal is $\frac{-5}{3}$, slope of your tangent will be $\frac{3}{5}$
