Consider the function f(x) = 2√√x+4 on the interval [2,6]. (A) Find the average or mean slope of the function on this interval. Average Slope = (B) By the Mean Value Theorem, we know there exists at least one c in the open interval (2, 6) such that f'(c) is equal to this mean slope. Find all values of c that work and list them (separated by commas) in the box below. List of values:
