Overview
For this discussion, you will work individually to answer the questions.
In a video game, airplanes move from left to right along the path described by y=2+1x.
They can shoot rockets tangent to the direction of flight at targets on the x-axis located atx=1,2,3, and 4.
- Will a rocket fired from(1,3) hit a target?
- Will a rocket fired from(2,2.5) hit a target?
- Will a rocket fired from(3,2.33) hit a target?
Post the answers to the questions above, including a demonstration of the mathematical work you used to reach the answer.
Submit your initial post by the fourth day of the module week.
Hint: Take the derivative and create the tangent line and see where the intercept is.
the second one is
- In a discussion post, you will create a function and show the class step by step (using the equation editor or neatly written solution attached) how to take the derivative of your created function. The solution must include either Implicit and/or a Logarithmic Function to solve.
