Question

Determine the equation of the line tangent to the graph of y=15e^((6x)^2)- 6x
at x=2 in the form t=mx+b

Answer 1

first find the derivative of the function

Answer 2

f'(2)=m for your tangent line equation. You will also need a point on your line to fully describe it. We know the line goes through the point (2, f(2)). So your line will be described by:\[y-f(2)=f'(2)(x-2)\]rearrange into standard form and you're done :)

Answer 3

let me know if you get stuck...I'll be online later
