The table gives selected values of the differentiable function .
Below is Tom’s attempt to write a formal justification for the fact that there exists a value in the interval such that .
Is Tom’s justification complete? If not, why?
Tom’s justification:
We are given that is differentiable, which means it’s both differentiable and continuous over the interval . Furthermore,
So, according to the mean value theorem, there exists a value somewhere in the interval such that . Options
Yes, Tom’s justification is complete.
No, Tom did not establish that the average rate of change of over is equal to .
No, Tom should have mentioned that is differentiable.
None of the above
