Hi ilovealgebra;
You are given
First get the derivative:
Now get the slope m by plugging in -3 in the right hand side
Now get
Now you have
Just plug into the slope tangent formula
simpllfy
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
