Consider the function f(x) = 5 - 5x² on the interval [ – 1, 4]. Find the average or mean slope of the function on this interval, i.e. f(4) - f(-1) 4- (-1) By the Mean Value Theorem, we know there exists a c in the open interval (-1, 4) such that f'(c) is equal to this mean slope. For this problem, there is only one c that works. Find it.
