tangent of f(x)=2x^3,\at x=-1

tangent of

f (x) = 2 x^{3}, at x = - 1

y = 6 x + 4

Solution steps

Find the tangent point:

(- 1, - 2)

Find the slope of

f (x) = 2 x^{3} : \frac{df ( x )}{d x} = 6 x^{2}

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 = 6

Find the line with slope m=

6

and passing through

(- 1, - 2) : y = 6 x + 4

y = 6 x + 4
