Question 6
Consider the curve given by the equation
y3
- xy
= 2. It can be shown that
dy dx
=
y 3y2 -
x
.
(a) Write an equation for the line tangent to the curve at the point (-1, 1).
(b) Find the coordinates of all points on the curve at which the line tangent to the curve at that point is vertical.
(c)
d2y Evaluate dx2
at the point on the curve where x =
-1 and y = 1.
(a)
dy dx

(b) 3y2 - x = 0 x = 3y2
( ) So, y3 - xy = 2 y3 - 3y2 ( y) = 2 y = -1
(-1)3 - x(-1) = 2 x = 3
The tangent line to the curve is vertical at the point (3, -1).
