To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the given information and apply the necessary calculus concepts. ### Step 1: Identify the function and its derivative We are given the curve \( y = 5x - 2x^3 \). To find the slope of the curve, we need to compute the derivative of \( y \) with respect to \( x \). \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}(5x - 2x^3) = 5 - 6x^2 \] ...
