Explanation
We must the tangent line at x = 3 of the function:
The tangent line is given by:
Where:
• m is the slope of the tangent line of f(x) at x = h,
,• k = f(h) is the value of the function at x = h.
In this case, we have h = 3.
1) First, we compute the derivative of f(x):
2) By evaluating the result of f'(x) at x = h = 3, we get:
3) The value of k is:
4) Replacing the values of m, h and k in the general equation of the tangent line, we get:
Plotting the function f(x) and the tangent line we verify that our result is correct:
AnswerThe equation of the tangent line to f(x) and x = 3 is:
Take a look at the attachment to see the solution.
A = future value
P = principal (P = 12,000)
r = interest rate (r=6)
n = time periods (n=12)
A = future value
P = principal (P = 12,000)
r = interest rate (r=6)
n = time periods (n=12)
