plug x=1 into the equation and what do you get for y?
You know the line has to go through that point.
y=6-tan(pi/4)=6-1=5
If the line is tangent at (1,5), it is parallel – or has the same slope.
I’m assuming you know how to take derivatives (slopes).
y’ = (6x+2)^-(2/3) – 3sec2(3x-3+pi/4)
at x=1
y’ = (8)^-(2/3) – 3sec2(pi/4)
y’ = 0.25 – 6 = -5.75
whats the line that passes through the point (1,5) with a slope of -5.75?
y-5=-5.75(x-1)
y-5=-5.75x+5.75
y=-5.75x-10.75
