Slope of Tangent line at a point x = derivative f(x) at x

Find the derivative of f(x), then find when it equals zero (a line with slope zero is a horizontal line)

#

Could you show me /thpe up ypur work

#

Yep thats right, now just substitute them into f(x)

#

Ye

Take the ln of both sides
ln(a^b) = b•ln(a)
