Solution

Hi, for slope finding derivative , 3x2-2x-2+dydx- 0 = 0 dydx= -3x2-2x-2and its value is given 1 -3x2-2x-2= 1 3x2-2x-1=0 3x2-3x+x-1=03xx-1+1x-1= 0 x-13x+1=0 x = 1, -13so putting one by one values of x to get y at x = 1 , 1-1-2+y-4 = 0 y = 6 so the point is 1,6and at x = -13-127-19+23+y-4 = 0 -1-3+1827-4 = -y -y = 14-10827y = 9427so the point is -13,9427
