The Mean Value Theorem
This theorem is an extension of Rolle’s Theorem

Example
Show that f(x) satisfies the Mean Value Theorem on [a,b]
f (x) = x3 – x, Interval: a = 0, b = 2.
Since f is a polynomial, it is continuous and differentiable for all x, so it is certainly continuous on [0, 2] and differentiable on (0, 2).
Therefore, by the Mean Value Theorem, there is a number c in (0, 2) such that
f (2) – f (0) = f (c)(2 – 0)

Example - proof
f (2) = 6,
f (0) = 0, and
f (x) = 3x2 – 1,
so this equation becomes:
6 = (3c2 – 1)2
= 6c2 – 2
which gives that is, c = But c must lie in
(0, 2), so

The Mean Value TheoremThe Mean Value Theorem can be used to establish some of the basic facts of differential calculus.
