Final answer:

The curve represented by the equation y = 10 tan(x) - 1/2 can be identified by substituting different values of x into the equation. Some points on the curve are (0, -0.5), (π/4, 9.5), (π/2, ∞), (3π/4, -9.5), and (π, 0.5). Correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y = 10 tan(x) - 1/2 represents a curve. To identify points on this curve, we can substitute different values of x into the equation and solve for y. Here are some points on the curve:

  • (0, -0.5)
  • (π/4, 9.5)
  • (π/2, ∞)
  • (3π/4, -9.5)
  • (π, 0.5)

These points can be plotted on a graph and connected to create the curve. So the answer is B) (x3, y3), (x4, y4).
