Expert Solution
Step 1

Part_a_ Determine the coordinates of all point(s) on the graph of y=2xlnx where the tangent line is perpendicular to the line x+4y-7=0.

 

Solution:-

 

1. Slope of line x+4y-7=0

Slope of line perpendicular to the line ax+by+c=0 is given as m=ba

 

Substitute a=1 and b=4 in m=ba

m=41

m=4 Equation 1

 

2. Slope of the tangent line of y=2xlnx is given as dydx

dydx=ddx2xlnx

dydx=2lnxddxx+2xddxlnx

dydx=2lnx+2x×1x

dydx=2lnx+2

 

Since, the tangent line is perpendicular to the line x+4y-7=0

Therefore, dydx=4

4=2lnx+2

2lnx=4-2

2lnx=2

lnx=22

lnx=1

 

Take antilog in both sides

x=e Equation 2

 

Substitute x=e in y=2xlnx

y=2×e×lne

y=2e×1

y=2e Equation 2

 

Coordinates of the point e, 2e

 

Hence, the coordinates of all point on the graph of y=2xlnx where the tangent line is perpendicular to the line x+4y-7=0 is (e, 2e)
