<h3>Answer:   c = 7/4</h3>

================================================

Work Shown:

Compute the function value at the endpoints

f(x) = \sqrt{4-x}\\\\f(-5) = \sqrt{4-(-5)} = 3\\\\f(4) = \sqrt{4-4} = 0\\\\

With a = -5 and b = 4, we have

f'(c) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\\\f'(c) = \frac{f(4)-f(-5)}{4-(-5)}\\\\f'(c) = \frac{0-3}{9}\\\\f'(c) = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\

So,

f(x) = \sqrt{4-x}\\\\f'(x) = -\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-x}}\\\\f'(c) = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-c}} = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\

Use algebra to solve for c

-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-c}} = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4-c}} = \frac{1}{3}\\\\3 = 2\sqrt{4-c}\\\\2\sqrt{4-c} = 3\\\\\sqrt{4-c} = \frac{3}{2}\\\\4-c = \frac{9}{4}\\\\c = 4-\frac{9}{4}\\\\c = \frac{16-9}{4}\\\\c = \frac{7}{4}\\\\

Answer:

 y= -\frac{1}{3}x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope formula, you can form this equation! The slope of any equation would replace the m, and the y intercept would replace b!

I added in the slope formula at the bottom, just in case, so you'll see what I mean!

I hope this helps, and I explained enough! Have a great day c:
