What two numbers would you multiple first in 25 x 17 x 4? You don't have to solve this, I just want to know what you would do first.

I would do 25 x 15 because its better to get the big equation first then after then I just need to multiply the answer by a smaller number which is easier. :)

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.
