b.
Answer to Problem 26E
The equation of tangents whose x coordinate are
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The function is
Calculation :
The equation of a tangent line to the graph of
At
Here,
Thus the equation of the tangent at
Similarly, at
Here,
Thus the equation of the tangent at
And, at
Here,
Thus the equation of the tangent at
Hence,
The equation of tangents whose x coordinate are
