To find the slope u turn it into a shape it could make such as in this case u are able to make a box like this. For such as u can use this picture to get a better understand but hope this helps :)

Mean Value theorem help! BRAINLIEST if you can explain it clearly!!!

Korolek [52]

$\bf f(x)=ln(x-5)\qquad [6,8]\qquad \cfrac{df}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{x-5}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{mean value theorem}\qquad f'(c)=\cfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
f'(c)=\cfrac{1}{c-5}\qquad thus\quad \cfrac{1}{c-5}=\cfrac{f(8)-f(6)}{8-6}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{c-5}=\cfrac{ln(3)-ln(1)}{2}\implies \cfrac{1}{c-5}=\cfrac{ln(3)-0}{2}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{2}{ln(3)}=c-5\implies \boxed{\cfrac{2}{ln(3)}+5=c}$
