(i) y = x4 – 6x3 + 13x2 – 10x + 5 at (0, 5) dy
\(\frac{dy}{dx}\) = 4x3 – 18x2 + 26x – 10 dx
slope at (0,5) = -10
∴ Equation of tangent at (0, 5) is
y – 5 = -10 (x – 0)
y – 5 = -10 x 10 x + y – 5 = 0
slope of the normal at (0,5)
(0, 5) = \(\frac{-1}{-10} = \frac{1}{10}\)
∴ equation of normal is
y – 5 = \(\frac{1}{10}\)(x – 0) = 10y – 50 = x
x – 10y + 50 = 0
(ii) \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) = 4x3 – 18x2 + 26x – 10 dx
slope of the tangent at x = 1
