tangent of 2x^4

tangent of

2 x^{4}

y = 8 a_{0}^{3} x - 6 a_{0}^{4}

Solution steps

Compute the tangent line to the general point

x = a_{0}

Find the tangent point:

(a_{0}, 2 a_{0}^{4})

Find the slope of

y = 2 x^{4} : \frac{d y}{d x} = 8 x^{3}

EN : T i tl e G e n er a l Eq u a t i o n Sl o p e A t P o in t 2 Eq : m = 8 a_{0}^{3}

Find the line with slope m=

8 a_{0}^{3}

and passing through

(a_{0}, 2 a_{0}^{4}) : y = 8 a_{0}^{3} x - 6 a_{0}^{4}

y = 8 a_{0}^{3} x - 6 a_{0}^{4}
