The figure above shows the graph of the differentiable function f for 1 ≤ x ≤ 11 and the secant line through the points (1, f (1)) and (11, f (11)). For how many values of x in the closed interval [1, 11] does the instantaneous rate of change of fat x equal the average rate of change of f over that interval?
