Given curve is y(x)=1+\sqrt{4x-3},x>\frac{3}{4}

Let point P\;\text{ be }\;\left ( \alpha,1+\sqrt{4\alpha-3} \right )

\\\text{slope }=\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{4x-3}}

\\\frac{dy}{dx}\left . \right |_{at \;P}=\frac{2}{3}\\\frac{2}{\sqrt{4\alpha-3}}=\frac{2}{3}\\\alpha=3

Hence, point P (3,4)

\\\text{ slope of normal at }\mathrm{P\;}(3,4)\text{ is }=-\frac{3}{2}\\\text{ equation of normal }\\ Y-4=-\frac{3}{2}(X-3)\\ 2 y-8=-3 x+9 \\3 x+2 y=17\\ \text{ clearly it is passes through (1,7)}
