    Calculus - Tangent Line Question

    [FONT="Century Gothic"] You have to solve two equations for x and for b: 10x = e^(bx) and 10 = b*e^(bx) Multiplying the second eqn by x and comparing it to the first eqn gives e^bx = 10x = x*b*e^(bx) It follows that 1 = x*b, so x = 1/b. A little more work will reveal that x = e/10.
