Question

mertsj · Answer

Can you find the first derivative?

lieutenantgeneral · Answer

|dw:1392933064941:dw|

anonymous · Answer

find dy/dx at x=2,also y at x=2
then equation of tangent is
y-y1=dy/dx (x-x1)

anonymous · Answer

I said the derivative is $$5(x ^{3}-7)^{4}$$

mertsj · Answer

You forgot to multiply that by the derivative of x^3-7
