Answer

\[y = - 2x + 9\]

Work Step by Step

\[\begin{gathered} y = 8 - {x^2}\,\,,\,\,x = 1 \hfill \\ Evaluate\,\,the\,\,function\,\,at\,\,x = 1 \hfill \\ y\,\left( 1 \right) = 8 - \,{\left( 1 \right)^2} \hfill \\ y\,\left( 1 \right) = 7 \hfill \\ Point\,\,\,\left( {1,7} \right) \hfill \\ Find\,\,the\,\,derivative\,\,of\,\,the\,\,fuction \hfill \\ {y^,} = \,{\left( {8 - {x^2}} \right)^,} \hfill \\ {y^,} = - 2x \hfill \\ m = {y^,}\,\left( 1 \right) = - 2\,\left( 1 \right) \hfill \\ m = - 2 \hfill \\ Point - slope\,\,form\,\, \hfill \\ y - 7 = - 2\,\left( {x - 1} \right) \hfill \\ Simplifying \hfill \\ y - 7 = - 2x + 2 \hfill \\ y = - 2x + 9 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]
