Question 1.
- Verify mean value theorem for the function f(x) = (x – 2)2 in [1, 4].
- Find a point on the curve y = (x – 2)2 at which the tangent is parallel to the chord joining the points (1, 1) and (4, 2)
- Find a point on the above curve at which the tangent is parallel to the x-axis.
Answer:
1. f(x) = (x – 1)2, x ∈ [1, 4]
f(x) is continuous in [1, 4]
f'(x) = 2(x – 2) is differentiable in [1, 4]
Then there exists c ∈ [1, 4] so that
