Omar is about to start his final semester of college, and he doesn't have enough money saved to afford the $750 he needs in books. He's 21, so he's going to open his own credit card to pay for the books, and then not use it again. His plan is to pay $100 per month toward his bill, until it's paid off. Which credit card offer is the best offer for Omar?

i believe it is c.y = 9x

rise over run. 9 units up over 1 unit right or 9/1

1 number

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.
