Expert Solution
Step 1

Given function is: z=e2x

To find the equation of the tangent at a point x=x0 to curve y=fx, determine the slope of the tangent which is dydt at x=x0.

Differentiate the function z=e2x

dzdt=2e2x

The slope at x=0 is:

dzdtx=0=2e20=2

At x=0, the value of the function is: 

z0=e20=1

Then, the equation of the tangent is given by the formula:

z-z0=dzdxx0x-x0z-1=2x-0z=2x+1

Therefore, the equation of the tangent at x=0 is z=2x+1
