Find the gradient of the tangent to the curve y=4x^2 - 7x at x = 2

First, we differentiate our equation using the power rule:dy/dx = 8x - 7This is the gradient of our tangent, to the original equation, at any point x. So, to calculate the gradient at x = 2, we substitute...

a typical question would be a setof parametric equations y(t) and x(t), asking you to find dy/dx and then the tangent/normal to the curve at a certain point (ie t = 2)

this question is a great example as we have many different aspects of a level maths workng together into one.initialy you will use use chain rule to find dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx.then you will either keep th...
