How do you find the number c that satisfies the conclusion of Rolle's Theorem #f(x) = x^3 - x^2 - 20x + 3# on interval [0, 5]?
1 Answer
Solve
Explanation:
It is best to first check: this
This means that this function on this intevral satisfies the hypotheses for Rolle's Theorem.
So the conclusion of Rolle's Theorem must also be true in this case.
The conclusion of Rolle's Theorem says there is a
at
We know that
so
We can trust the theorem and conclude that the
therefore
