#

Differentiate

#

Set that equal to -1/2

#

Tbh

rose tusk
#

but you're already given the derivative

twilit folio
#

Ooh

#

U gotta flip and then minus sign

#

Idk the question is missing

#

probably wants you to integrate

#

Ye ig

Prolly

#

yes with the 4,9

#

Aight I'll explain properly now was eating mb

#

So at normal the gradient would be

#

-1 × reciprocal of dy/dx

#

So -dx/dy

#

And this will be equal to -1/2

#

Because l is parallel to like 2y +x

twilit folio
#

The gradient of this line is y = -x/2

#

So -1/2

#

@woven oriole

  • 2 = 2?
#

Where did the extra 2 come from

#

Hol on ill read this stuff tomorrow my heads hurting from so much math today 😭😭😭

#

I appreciate it tho thank you

rose tusk
#

Gradient of the tangent is - 1/ gradient of normal

#

Normal has gradient - 1/2

#

so tangent has gradient 2

#

But we're given the gradient function so just set it equal to 2

#

to find the x coordinate

woven oriole
#

Shooot Yhh why didn’t I think of that 🤦‍♂️

#

That’s smart thank you bro

rose tusk
#

Can you help with my potato question

woven oriole
