Problem

Consider the curve defined by x=etx = e^{t} and y=tety = t e^{t}. Determine the equation of the tangent to the curve at the point where the slope is 55. a) y−5e5=5(x−e5)y - 5e^{5} = 5\bigl(x - e^{5}\bigr) b) y−4e4=4(x−e4)y - 4e^{4} = 4\bigl(x - e^{4}\bigr) c) y−4e4=5(x−e4)y - 4e^{4} = 5\bigl(x - e^{4}\bigr) d) y−e4=5(x−e4)y - e^{4} = 5\bigl(x - e^{4}\bigr)
