1. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
2. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:

C of cource!

You need tangent, right? A and be aren't tangents. They are different

[stiff bane]

thank you, will you be able to help me wit part B too please ?

[dreamy ginkgo]

@stiff bane has given 1 rep to @civic crater

[civic crater]

Ok

But about A

[stiff bane]

A) is C right ?

[civic crater]

passing through a point of the curve and coinciding with it at this point up to the first order?

[stiff bane]

im sorry what 😃

[civic crater]

You need tangent - line

[stiff bane]

yeah trhe tangent line is C

[civic crater]

Heh wiki

Ok go part B go

[stiff bane]

yeah i have no idea how to work out part B

[civic crater]

What is gradient?

[stiff bane]

the Line C

[civic crater]

You know equation of this curve?

[civic crater]

.

[stiff bane]

change in Y/ Change in x

i think

[civic crater]

Sorry am I right what you need to find out function gradient?

[stiff bane]

you need to find the value of the gradient

so like find the estimat eof the curve

[civic crater]

Ah area under the curve?

[stiff bane]

gradient of the tangent

[civic crater]

Well, it equal to the derivative of the curve evaluated at the point where the curve and tangent line meet

[stiff bane]

im still so sttuck

[civic crater]

Working this direction

[stiff bane]

i generally so confused what are u saying

[civic crater]

Differentiate the equation of the curve to obtain the gradient I think

[civic crater]

Then put x value in it

X=4

[stiff bane]

huh?!?!?

i need 2 Y and X values ?

wheres x=4 come fromm

[civic crater]

From evidence

I try to understand what is our goal. I got that the answer to b) would be equation for a tangent

I found this instruction

[stiff bane]

ive never been more confused

[civic crater]

What's wrong

[stiff bane]

idek

[civic crater]

?????

Man am I going wrong direction or you have some unrevealed data?

[stiff bane]

bro thats the entire question and i dont understand a bit of it🤷‍♂️
