Question 38

The curve C has equation y=f(x),x>0y = \mathrm{f}(x), x > 0y=f(x),x>0. Given that:

  • the point P(9,−2)P(9, -2)P(9,−2) lies on CCC
  • f′(x)=3x2+ax+b2x\mathrm{f}'(x) = \dfrac{3x^2 + ax + b}{2\sqrt{x}}f′(x)=2x​3x2+ax+b​, where aaa and bbb are constants
  • the gradient of the tangent to CCC at PPP is 353535
