Question
![**Problem Statement:**
For the function \( f(x) = 12x - 10 \), find the slope of the tangent line at \( x = 3 \).
**Answer Submission Box:**
- There is an empty input field labeled "Answer" where you can enter your solution.
- Next to the input field is a "Submit Answer" button where you click to submit your response.
Explanation:
This problem is asking for the slope of the tangent line to the function \( f(x) \) at a specific point \( x = 3 \). For linear functions like the one given (\( f(x) = 12x - 10 \)), the slope is constant and is represented by the coefficient of \( x \). Thus, the slope of the function \( f(x) \) at any point, including \( x = 3 \), is the value of the coefficient of \( x \) in the given linear equation.
In this case, submit the value of the coefficient as your answer.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F9df89429-0ee4-4677-8782-a350094e2dd3%2Ffb7e519f-b74d-4a92-9459-9aa03839c29d%2F9z7ym47_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
