Problem on tangent and velocity


Assignment:

The parabola y = (x^2) + 3 has two tangents which pass through the point (0, -2). One is tangent to the to the parabola at (A, A^2 + 3) and the other at (-A, A^2 + 3). Find (the positive number) ?

If a ball is thrown vertically upward from the roof of 64ft foot building with a velocity of 96 ft/sec, its height after t seconds is s(t) = 64 + 96t - 16t^2. I found it's max height to be 208 ft. What is the velocity of the ball when it hits the ground (height0)?

Use the derivative to find this equation of the tangent line to the curve y = 4x + 3 * square root of x at the point (4, 22.000000). The equation of this tangent line can be written in the form y = mx + b?

Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
