I am trying to solve this in MATLAB.
Find the value of the number a such that the families of curves y = (x + c)-1 and y= a (x + k)1/3 are orthogonal trajectories.
Here are the steps I took to solve the problem however I can't figure out how to do this in MATLAB.
Step 1.
y= -1(x + c)-2(1) = -1(1 / (x + c)2
Step 2.
y= - 1/(x0+c)2
Step 3.
y= a/3 (x + k)-2/3 (1) = a / 3(x + k)2/3
Step 4.
y= a/ 3(x0+k)2/3
Step 5
y = a(-k+k)1/3 = a(0) = 0
Step 6
(- 1/(x0+c)2) (a/3(x0+k)2/3) = -1, a = 3(x0+c)2(x0+k)2/3
Step 7
(x0+c)-1= a(x0+k)1/3, 1/(x0+c) = a(x0+k)1/3, (x0+c) = 1/a(x0+k)1/3
Step 8
a = 3(1/a(x0+k)1/3)2(x0+k)2/3
a = 3(1/a2(x0+k)2/3) (x0+k)2/3
a = 3(1/a2)
a3 = 3 a = 3sqrt(3)

First, create symbolic variables using syms. Then, define all the equations and find value of desired variable using solve.

Anyway you could walk me through this I've never used MATLAB before this class and the tutorial for what ever reason I can't tie this to anything I did in it.
