there are two tangents lines to the curve f(x) = 3x^2 that pass through the point p =0,1 find the x coordinates of the point where the tangents line intersect the curve

Answer 1

The point (0,1) lies in the "interior" of the parabola
y = 3x^2.
There is no tangent to the curve that will pass through (0,1).

check your typing.

Answer 2

there are two tangents lines to the curve f(x) = 3x^2 that pass through the point p =0,-1 find the x coordinates of the point where the tangents line intersect the curve, please show working.

Answer 3

ahhh, now it makes sense.

let the point of contact be (a,b)

slope of tangent by the grade 9 way = (b+1)/a
slope of tangent by Calculus is
dy/dx = 6x
so at the point (a,b), slope = 6a

then 6a = (b+1)/a
6a^2 = b+1
but since (a,b) lies on the curve, b = 3a^2
so
6a^2 = 3a^2 + 1
a^2 = 1/3
a = ± 1/√3

so the x coordinates of the two tangents are 1/√3 and -1/√3

Answer 4

find the equation of the tangent line of the curve y=root x divideed by x+1 at the point p = 2, root 2 divided by 3. show working please.

Answer 5

find the equation of the tangent line to the curve y = 2√2/x+1 at the point p=1,2/3.please show working. i would appreciate if you do it before 12:05pm today

Answer 6

use implcit differenciation to find an eqaution of both the tangent line to the ellipse:
2x^2 + 4y^2 = 36
that passes through the points: 14,3
