If (x,y) is any point on the curve, the sub tangent at  (x,y)=ydxdy
 ydxdy=nx(given) or   ndyy=dxx
Integrating  nlogy=logx+logc or  logyn=logcx
or    yn=cx.......(i)
 which is the required equation of the family of curves.
Putting  x=2,  y=3  in 
(i), we have  3n=2c or  c=3n2 Putting this value of c in 
(i)  yn=3n2x  or   2yn=3nx
(ii) which is the particular curve passing through the point (2,3)
Putting  n=1 in
(ii), we have  2y=3x which is a straight line putting  n=2  in
(ii) we have  2y2=9x which is a parabola.
