In 1993 eggs cost $0.87 a dozen. In 2003 it cost $1.56 a dozen. How much did the eggs appreciate (percent of increase)? Show your work.​

190%

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.56 is close to nearly 2x the value of $0.87

You can start by multiplying $0.87 by 2 to get $1.74

Now put $1.56 / $1.74

This gets you 0.89655172

By rounding this, you can get to 0.90

Move the decimal places two spots over to get a percentage = 90%

Since the eggs didn't decrease in value, you can add the 100% from the beginning of the problem.

100+90=190%

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.
