Find the equation of the line tangent to y5y3xy4 at the poin
Find the equation of the line tangent to y^5+y^3=xy+4 at the point where y=1
the equation of the tangent line is y=
Solution
y^5+y^3=xy+4
at y =1
1^5+1^3=x*1 +4
1+1=x+4
x =-2
point on curve is (-2,1)
y^5+y^3=xy+4
differentiate with respect to x
5y4(dy/dx) +3y2(dy/dx)=y +x(dy/dx)+0
at point (-2,1)
5*14(dy/dx) +3*12(dy/dx)=1 -2(dy/dx)+0
8(dy/dx)=1-2(dy/dx)
10dy/dx =1
dy/dx =1/10
slope of tangent m = dy/dx =1/10
equation of tangent with slope m =1/10 at point (-2,1) is
y-1 =(1/10)(x-(-2))
y-1 =(1/10)(x+2)
y-1=(1/10)x +(2/10)
y=(1/10)x +(2/10)+1
y=(1/10)x +(12/10)
y=(1/10)x +(6/5)
equation of tangent is y=(1/10)x +(6/5)
