\end{figure} The points \(P\) and \(Q\), as shown in Figure 2, have coordinates ( \(- 2,13\) ) and ( \(4 , - 5\) ) respectively. The straight line \(l\) passes through \(P\) and \(Q\).
  1. Find an equation for \(l\), writing your answer in the form \(y = m x + c\), where \(m\) and \(c\) are integers to be found. The quadratic curve \(C\) passes through \(P\) and has a minimum point at \(Q\).
  2. Find an equation for \(C\). The region \(R\), shown shaded in Figure 2, lies in the second quadrant and is bounded by \(C\) and \(l\) only.
  3. Use inequalities to define region \(R\). \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{6a5d0ffc-a725-404b-842a-f3b6000e6fed-11_2255_50_314_34}
