Find the points on the curve x^3-2x^2...

Find the points on the curve `x^3-2x^2-2x` at which the tangent lines are parallel to the line `y=2x-3` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(x_{1}, y_{1})=(frac{-2}{3}, frac{4}{27})`

Given: `y=2 x-3`
`\therefore` Slope of the line `=\frac{d y}{d x}=2`

`y=x^{3}-2 x^{2}-2 x`
Since `(x_{1} y_{1})` lies on curve,`y_{1}=x_{1}^{3}-2 x_{1}^{2}-2 x_{1} \ldots(1)`

`\Rightarrow(\frac{d y}{d x})_{(x_{1}, y_{1}}=3 x_{1}^{2}-4 x_{1}-2`

As given tangent and line are parallel.
`\therefore` Slope of the tangent `=` Slope of the given line $$ ...
