To solve the problem, we’ll work through each part step-by-step.
(a) Equation of the Tangent Line at
We start by calculating the derivative
:
Substituting
:
Now we have both the point where
and the slope of the tangent:
- Point:
- Slope:
Using the point-slope form of the line:
Substituting in our values:
Simplifying this:
So the equation of the tangent line is:
(b) Values of
for Horizontal Tangent
A horizontal tangent occurs when the derivative
:
This simplifies to:
Solving for
:
Thus, the values of
for which the graph of
has a horizontal tangent are:
© Find
We start with the first derivative:
To find
, we will differentiate
:
Using the quotient rule
, where
and
:
Now applying the quotient rule:
Thus:
This captures the second derivative of the function
