If $$f(4) = 4$$ and $$f '(x) \geq 2$$ for $$4 \leq x \leq 7$$, how small can f(7) possibly be?

Assuming that the function is continuous on the interval [4,7][4,7], you could use the mean value theorem.
For $$x∈(4,7)x∈(4,7)$$, one has by the mean value theorem that :
$$f'(x)=\frac{(7)-4}{3}\geq2$$
So that
$$f(7)\geq10$$
ie the smallest value that f(7) can obtain is 10.
