A student claims that the line tangent to the graph of f(x) = e x at x
Question:
A student claims that the line tangent to the graph of f(x) = ex at x = 3 passes through the point (2, 0) (see the figure). Is she correct? Will the line tangent at x = 4 pass through (3, 0)? Explain.

I am semi-qualified Chemical Engineering ,I have scored centum in accounting in my senior secondary and in my graduation. I have always helped my fellow students with their concerns on the subject, i have tutored on various tutoring sites in the past and also have taken home tuitions for degree and MBA students. As a tutor, I don't want my students to just get a solution, I want them to understand the concept and never have a doubt in that area thereon and i believe in excelling and not in educating.
