There are 8 more girls than boys in a particular class of the boys and of the girls were born in Georgia. If the number of boys that were born in Georgia is equal to the number of
girls that were born in Georgia, how many students (boys and girls together) in that class were
born in Georgia?

hi there!

the answer will be d: 2

answer: 193

explanation:

200-7 = 193

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.
