Answer:

Tangent at (1,2) has value \frac{15}{4}. And (-2, 4) is the point of intersection of horizontal tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given curve equation,

y^2=x^3+3x^2\hfill (1)

To find tangent at (x,y)=(1,2) and point of intersection of horizontal tangent, differentiate (1) withrespect to x we get,

2y\frac{dy}{dx}=x^3+3x^2

\implies \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{3(x^2+2x)}{2y}

At (1, 2), tangent line is,

\frac{dy}{dx}|_{(1,2)}}=\frac{15}{4}

To find point of intersection of horizontal tangent we have to do,

\frac{dy}{dx}=0

\implies x(x+2)=0\implies x=0 or -2

Thus,

At x=0, y=0

but snce,

\lim_{y\to 0}\frac{dy}{dx}\to \infty

at (0,0) there exist a vertical tangent. And,

At x=-2, y=4.

Thus (-2, 4) is the point of intersection of horizontal tangent.

If the discriminant is less than zero than the equation has ______________ solutions.
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The discriminant is the part under the square root in the quadratic formula, b²-4ac. If it is more than 0, the equation has two real solutions. If it's less than 0, there are no solutions. If it's equal to 0, there is one solution.
