Question

How do you write the slope of the line tangent to `f(x)=3-2x` at the point (-1,5)?

Answer 1

The slope of the line tangent to `f(x)=3-2x` is `-2`.

Explanation:

As `f(x)=3-2x` or `y=3-2x` is a linear function, it is the equation of a straight line, whose slope is `-2`.

A straight line is itself a tangent, at any of its point and as such

the slope of the line tangent to `f(x)=3-2x` is `-2`.
