An exponential function is given by the equation y=3x. Using the points x and x+1, show that the y-values increase by a factor of 3 between any two points separated by x2−x1=1 Please show your work.

i’m here for points.

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.
