Consider the function ` f(x) = 6 -8 x^2 ` on the interval ` [ -1 , 5 ] `.
Find the average or mean slope of the function on this interval, i.e.
` \frac ( f(5) - f(-1) )( 5 - (-1) ) = `
By the Mean Value Theorem, we know there exists a ` c ` in the open interval
` (-1, 5) ` such that ` f'( c) ` is equal to this mean slope. For this problem,
there is only one ` c ` that works. Find it.
