<span>(a) the slope of curve is calculated from the derivative of the curve expression y=5/x. In this problem, the slope m=-5/(a^2). (b) x=1, y=5,and m=-5, the tangent line is y-5=-5*(x-1). x=4, y=5/4, and m=-5/16, the tangent line is y-5/4=-5/16*(x-4)</span>

The earth exerts a gravitational force of F(f)=(2.99x10^16)/r^2 newtons on an object with a mass of 75kg located r meters from t
QveST [7]
Umm this should be in physics but F is proportional to 1/r^2 I am assuming you want to just take the derivative in respect to r of both sides of the equation

 F = (2.99x10^16)/r^2
So you do that and you get 
dF/dr = -2(2.99 * 10 ^16)/ (r^3)

is this for calc class?
