Now wait a minute. Try this one yourself first.
not exactly sure how to solve it...... do i use the tangent line equation f(c+change in x)................???
Exactly the same way I did the ellipse.
find dy/dx, the slope
call it m at the given point
use the point in the equation to find b in y = m x + b
call it m at the given point
use the point in the equation to find b in y = m x + b
k thanks soooo much!!!
