Let fx9x9x2 Then the equation of the tangent line to the gra
Let f(x)=9x+(9/x^2). Then the equation of the tangent line to the graph of f(x) at the point (2,21) is given by y=mx+b for
m=?
and
b=?
m=?
and
b=?
Solution
f\'(x) = 9 - 18/x3
SO, we have,
f\'(2) = 9 - 18/93
= 727/81
So, we have,
eqn of tangent as:
y - 21 = (x-2)(727/81)
So, we have, m = 727/81 , b = -2 x 727/81 + 21 = 247/81
