Homework Statement
a. Find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of y=g(x) at x = 5 if g(5) = -3 and g'(5) = 4
b. If the tangent line to y = f(x) at (4,3) passes through the point (0,2), find f(4) and f'(4)
Homework Equations
y=mx =b
f(a+h)-f(a)
h
y – y1 = m(x – x1)
The Attempt at a Solution
So in a. I'm given a point (5, -3) but I'm not sure if we can find the equation right away or find the slope first. I also don't know what g'(5) = 4 has to do with the problem. Should I sketch them?
For b. I'm not even sure what I'm trying to find, a value? equation?
