Expert Solution
Step 1: Given Information and formula used :

The function fx=6+10x-9x2 on the interval 0,b and the average value of the function is 7.

The objective is to find all number b.

Formula Used :

(1) The average value of the function fx in the interval a,b is fave=1b-aabf(x)dx.

(2) Power rule of integration is xn dx=xn+1n+1+c where c is the integrating constant.

(3) The fundamental theorem of calculus states that If there is an antiderivative F of the function in the interval a,b, then the definite integral of the function is the difference between the values of F that is F(b)-F(a)=abf(x)dx.

(4) The roots of the quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0 is x=-b±b2-4ac2a.
