With the given parabola and slope of a line that is tangent to the parabola, find the y-int of the tangent line.
\n" ); document.write( "f(x)=2x^2+2x-5, tangent line has slope 1
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "slope at every point = f'(x) = 4x+2
\n" ); document.write( "If slope = 1, 4x+2 = 1 and x = -1/4
\n" ); document.write( "If x = -1/4, y = 2(-1/4)^2+2(-1/4)-5 = 2(1/16)-(8/16)-(80/16) = -86/16 = -4.775
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the Equation::
\n" ); document.write( "Form:: y = mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"b\" if x = -1/4, y = -4.775, and m = 1
\n" ); document.write( "-4.775 = 1*(-0.25) + b
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Ans:: b = -4.525
