tangent line is the first derivative
wait so just find the derivative?
yep that will give you the equation then plug in your value
Take the derivative, evaluate at x=2. Use that value as the slope, and (2,f(2)) as a point on the line to get an equation of the line.
so far im using the qoutient rule so (e^4)(2e^(x^2))-e^((x^2)) 4e^3/e^16

then what?
why quotient rule? should be product rule and chain rule you have no division in this problem
