Hey guys, I spent the last day mulling this question over in my head, and decided to attack it in a slightly different way.
Basically, did what I was doing up to this point, set a point-slope form equation using x and x and x3 and x1 and y1...
y-x3 = 3x2(x-x3)
Now, I know the line has...
Homework Statement
Find the co-ordinates of all points on the curve f(x)= x3 whose tangent lines pass through the point (a,0)
Homework Equations
f '(x) = nxn-1
The Attempt at a Solution
I am really not sure how to attack this question. My initial thoughts are to find f '(x) then...
