f'(x) = kekx; g'(x) = -je-jx;f'(1) =kekl g'(1) = -je-j; f'(1)g'(1) = -1 because of perpendicularity tangents.
So, kek(-je-j) = -1; kj = ej-k

asked 11/03/21The graphs of the functions f(x)=e^kx and g(x) = e^-jx have tangents which are perpendicular to each other when x=1. Prove hat jk=e^j-k.
I tried doing this question and thought i was doing well until I got my final answer as e^j-k = 1/jk and I'm not sure what I did wrong to get the answer wrong.
