An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, a, and a base, b. The perimeter of the triangle is 15.7 inches, so the equation to solve is 2a + b = 15.7.
If we recall that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side, which lengths make sense for possible values of b? Select two options

Step-by-step explanation:

It could really be anything. You can say that both a’s are 5 inches. Then you add them up and get 10. And b could be 5.7 . Or the a’s could each be 7 inches, and when you add them you get 14, and b is 1.7

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.
