  2. B \((3,3)\)
  3. C \((4,4)\)
  4. D \((0,0)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \((0,0)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, curve, \(y=x^3\) \(\because\) Slope of tangent to the curve at any point \(\left(x_1, y_1\right)\) on the curve is \(=\left.\frac{d y}{d x}\right|_{\left(x_1, y_1\right)}\) So, \(\frac{d y}{d x}=3 x^2\) \(\therefore\) Slope of tangent at \(\left(x_1, y_1\right)\) is…
