Solution Steps

To find the equation of the tangent line at a given point on a curve, we need to follow these steps:

  1. Differentiate the given equation implicitly with respect to \(x\) to find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\).
  2. Substitute the given value of \(x\) into the original equation to find the corresponding \(y\) value.
  3. Substitute the \(x\) and \(y\) values into the derivative to find the slope of the tangent line.
  4. Use the point-slope form of a line equation, \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\), where \(m\) is the slope and \((x_1, y_1)\) is the point on the curve, to find the equation of the tangent line.
Step 1: Find the Value of \( y \) at \( x = 5 \)

Given the equation of the curve:

\[ 2y^3(x-5) + x\sqrt{y} = 10 \]

Substitute \( x = 5 \) into the equation:

\[ 2y^3(5-5) + 5\sqrt{y} = 10 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 5\sqrt{y} = 10 \]

Divide both sides by 5:

\[ \sqrt{y} = 2 \]

Square both sides to solve for \( y \):

\[ y = 4 \]

Step 2: Differentiate the Given Equation Implicitly

Differentiate the equation \( 2y^3(x-5) + x\sqrt{y} = 10 \) with respect to \( x \):

  1. Differentiate \( 2y^3(x-5) \):

    \[ \frac{d}{dx}[2y^3(x-5)] = 2y^3 \cdot 1 + (x-5) \cdot 6y^2 \frac{dy}{dx} = 2y^3 + 6y^2(x-5)\frac{dy}{dx} \]

  2. Differentiate \( x\sqrt{y} \):

    \[ \frac{d}{dx}[x\sqrt{y}] = \sqrt{y} + x \cdot \frac{1}{2\sqrt{y}} \cdot \frac{dy}{dx} = \sqrt{y} + \frac{x}{2\sqrt{y}}\frac{dy}{dx} \]

Combine these results:

\[ 2y^3 + 6y^2(x-5)\frac{dy}{dx} + \sqrt{y} + \frac{x}{2\sqrt{y}}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0 \]

Step 3: Solve for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) at \(x = 5\) and \(y = 4\)

Substitute \( x = 5 \) and \( y = 4 \) into the differentiated equation:

\[ 2(4)^3 + 6(4)^2(5-5)\frac{dy}{dx} + \sqrt{4} + \frac{5}{2\sqrt{4}}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0 \]

Simplify:

\[ 128 + 2 + \frac{5}{4}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0 \]

\[ 130 + \frac{5}{4}\frac{dy}{dx} = 0 \]

Solve for \(\frac{dy}{dx}\):

\[ \frac{5}{4}\frac{dy}{dx} = -130 \]

\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = -130 \times \frac{4}{5} \]

\[ \frac{dy}{dx} = -104 \]

Step 4: Write the Equation of the Tangent Line

The equation of the tangent line at a point \((x_0, y_0)\) is given by:

\[ y - y_0 = m(x - x_0) \]

where \( m = \frac{dy}{dx} \), \( x_0 = 5 \), and \( y_0 = 4 \).

Substitute the values:

\[ y - 4 = -104(x - 5) \]

Simplify:

\[ y - 4 = -104x + 520 \]

\[ y = -104x + 524 \]

Final Answer

The equation of the tangent line is:

\[ \boxed{y = -104x + 524} \]
