The domain of this function is [a, b] The domain of this function is [a, b] representing the time it was thrown until representing the time it was thrown until the time the pebble struck the ground. the time the pebble struck the ground. The rule of the function, f, is "height of The rule of the function, f, is "height of the pebble at time x".the pebble at time x".

Intermediate Value Intermediate Value TheoremTheorem

If f is continuous on [a, b] and If f is continuous on [a, b] and dd is is inbetween inbetween f(f(aa) ) and and f(f(bb)),,

then c (a,b) such that then c (a,b) such that f (f (cc) ) = = dd..

f(x) = xf(x) = x22 + x – 1.7 + x – 1.7

Prove f has a zero on [-1, 1]Prove f has a zero on [-1, 1] f(-1) = -1.7, f(1) = 0.3f(-1) = -1.7, f(1) = 0.3 f is continuous on [-1, 1]f is continuous on [-1, 1] 0 (-1.7, 0.3) so by the IVT0 (-1.7, 0.3) so by the IVT a c (-1, 1) so that f(c)= 0.a c (-1, 1) so that f(c)= 0.
