Vicki drove 150 miles in 3 hours. The average rate of change of her distance traveled with respect to time was 50 miles per hour.

The Mean Value Theorem tells us there must have been at least one moment in time, between noon and 3:00 pm, when she was traveling exactly 50 mph.

​Since v(t) is differentiable on the interval (0,9), it must be continuous. The Intermediate Value Theorem guarantees that there is a time c, for 0<c<9, such that v(c)=-1 because v(c)=-1 is between v(9)=-4 and v(0)=5.
