Find the slope of the graph of the function $y = \sqrt{3x}$ at $(3,3)$. Then find an equation of the line tangent to the graph at that point. The slope of the graph of the function $y = \sqrt{3x}$ at $(3,3)$ is (Type a simplified fraction.) The equation of the tangent to $y = \sqrt{3x}$ at $(3,3)$ is $y = $

3. To find the slope of the graph of the function y=3x at a specific point, we can take the derivative of the function and evaluate it at that point. The derivative of y=3x is simply 3, as the derivative of x with respect to x is 1 and the derivative of a constant Show more…
