Find the equation of the tangent to the ...

Find the equation of the tangent to the curve `y=(x-7)/((x-2(x-3)` at the point where it cuts the x-axis.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`20x + y -140 = 0`

Given, equation of curve is $$ y=\frac{(x-7)}{(x-2)(x-3)} $$ To find the intersection of given curve with `X`-axis, putting `y=0` in equation 1, we get, $$ 0=\frac{x-7}{(x-2)(x-3)} $$ ...
