Sketch and solve the given problem.
1. The line 2x-y+3=0 is parallel to the line tangent to the curve y=2lnx
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The given line has the slope m = 2.


So we should find a point on the curve, where the tangent line has the slope 2.


For it, take the derivative and equate it to 2:

     = 2

     x = 1.


ANSWER.  The point on the curve is  (x,y) = (1,0).

Solved.
