Question

find the equation of the tangent line:
y = x sqrt(5-x) at (1,2)

Answer 1

find the derivative and plug in the x value given (1)
that should give you your slope
then use point slope form with the given point (1,2)

Answer 2

You will have to use product rule

Answer 3

m = 3/4, correct?

Answer 4

7/4 is the correct one

Answer 5

i see now, ty

Answer 6
