How to find slope of parabola at a point?

To find the slope of a parabola at a point you have to find is the first derivative of the function. This first derivative is the slope of the tangent of the parabola at the given point and it is the same slope of the parabola.

If you have the parabola with the general form y = Ax^2 + Bx + C

The slope at point (m,n) is:

y' = 2Ax + B

x = n

=> y ' = 2A(n) + B.

For example, find the slope of the parabole y = 3x^2 + 2x + 1, at x = 1


y' = 6x + 2

x = 1 => y' = 6(1) + 2 = 8.

So the slope at x = 1 is 8.

Answer:

In the first step, there is an issue when distributing the -3 to the terms inside of the parentheses. When multiplying the -3 to the -5, you would get an answer of +15, not -15.

The full correct process is:

(4m + 9) - 3(2m - 5) = 4m + 9 - 6m + 15

                                = 4m - 6m + 9 + 15

                                = -2m + 24

Remember a^(m) x a^(n) =  a(m+n) & √a = a^(1/2)


===> x^(1/2 -3/2)+x(1/2 -1/2) ====> x^(-1)+x^(0) (any number Exp 0 =1)
X^(-1) +1 ===> 1/x +1 or (1+x)/x
