StrictConvexOn.slope_strict_mono_adjacent

∀ {𝕜 : Type u_1} [inst : Field 𝕜] [inst_1 : LinearOrder 𝕜] [IsStrictOrderedRing 𝕜] {s : Set 𝕜} {f : 𝕜 → 𝕜},
  StrictConvexOn 𝕜 s f → ∀ {x y z : 𝕜}, x ∈ s → z ∈ s → x < y → y < z → (f y - f x) / (y - x) < (f z - f y) / (z - y)

If f : 𝕜 → 𝕜 is strictly convex, then for any three points x < y < z the slope of the secant line of f on [x, y] is strictly less than the slope of the secant line of f on [y, z].
