Find the slope of the tangent to the curve y = x3 – 3x + 2 at the point whose. x-coordinate is 3. 

Solution

The equation of curve is
                    y = x3 – 3x + 2
therefore space space dy over dx space equals space 3 straight x squared minus 3 comma space space space space which space is space slope space of space tangent space to space the space curve
At space straight x space equals space 3 comma space space dy over dx space equals space 27 minus 3 space equals space 24
which space is space required space slope space of space tangent space to space the space curve.
