help here make the curve y=ax^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e have a critical point at (0,3) and have an inflection point at (1,2) with inflection tangent 6x+y=8
what the monkey is an "inflection tangent"?
YEAH THATS THE CASE WHAT ON EARTH IS INFECTION TANGENT HA!? hahah its on my book god...
i just figured it meant the slope of y''
o?
i mean the equation of the tangent line of y'' at (1,2)
but i could be wrong since i never heard of one
but we need find values for a,b,c,d above
i have the answer here... a=9 b =-22 c=12 d=3
lol
but i dont know how to do xD
d=3 is what i got but i failed at the other values
o my... oops d= 0 e= 3
a=9 b =-22 c=12 d=0 e =3
oh wait i did make a mistake
let me try this again i want to watch tv but i will see what i can figure out
because it has critical point at (0.3) then y'=4ax^3+3bx^2+2cx+d substitute leads to 0=d
yep e=3 for sure
i will be back ok
ok
i'm still stuck on the inflection tangent i just don't know what that is every way i tried to think of what it means it doesn't work out
