let f=x^3.
given a line tangent to one of the points, show that the derivative of the point the line intersects is 4 times as high as the slope of the line.

no I want to show that the slope of the tangent line to the graph at another point of intersection is four times the slope of the other.

Here's a btter way of putting it. suppsoe that the tangent line to a point p on X^3 intersects the curve again at a point q. show that the slope at the point q is 4 times the slope at p.

I'm saying that say the tangent to a point p a intersects the graph to which it is tangent again at another point q show that the derivative of the curve at q is 4 times the derivative at p
