QuestionFind an equation of a tangent line to the graph of a y=f(x)y=f(x) at the given point. y=xln(x5) at (6,0)y=x \ln (x-5) \text { at }(6,0) equation: \square

Studdy Solution
Use the point-slope form of a line, which is yy1=m(xx1) y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) , where m m is the slope and (x1,y1) (x_1, y_1) is the point (6,0) (6, 0) .
Substitute the values: y0=6(x6) y - 0 = 6(x - 6)
Simplify: y=6x36 y = 6x - 36
The equation of the tangent line is:
y=6x36 \boxed{y = 6x - 36}
