Step-by-Step Analysis
We begin by restating the warm-up question and the three statements to be evaluated, so we can inspect each one carefully before deciding which are true or false.
Option a) If f(x) is continuous on the interval [0,5] and f(0)=1 and f(5)=2, then the Intermediate Value Theorem says that there is a number c in [0,5] such that f(c)=2.
- Here, the given endpoint value f(5) already equals 2. Since c can be taken as 5 (which lies in the closed interval [0,5]), the statement that there exists a c with f(c)=2 on [0,5] is satisfied. The IVT guarantees that every intermediate value betwee......Login to view full explanationLog in for full answers
