The slope of the tangent to the curve y=...

The slope of the tangent to the curve `y=x^(3) -x +1` at the point whose x-coordinate is 2 is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The given curve is `y=x^3-x+1`
`:. (dy)/(dx)=3x^2-1`
The slope of the tangent to the curve at `x=2` is given by
`((dy)/(dx)_(x=2)=(3x^2-1)_(x=2)`
