The slope of the tangent to the curve...

The slope of the tangent to the curve `x=t^2+3t-8,\ \ y=2t^2-2t-5` at point `(2,\ -1)` is `22//7` (b) `6//7` (c) `-6` (d) `7//6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given curves are `x=t^2+3t−8 ... (i)`
and `y=2t^2−2t−5 ... (ii)`
At (2,−1), From (i) `t=2 or t=−5`
From (ii)
⟹`t=2 or t=−1`
From both the solutions, we get t=2
