13-140.
Show that the slope of the tangent line to the curve
when is . The slope function is
. Therefore evaluate . Let
. What is the slope of the tangent line to the curve when ? is a transformation of . It is just scaled by a factor of .
How does this affect the slope?How could you use the results from part (a) to answer the question in part (b)?
