Is Rolle’s theorem valid for f(x) = x^2 – 3x + 4 in the interval [1, 2]?(a) Yes(b) No(c) Depends on x(d) Data not sufficientI got this question in class test.I need to ask this question from First Order Derivative topic in portion Limits and Derivatives of Mathematics – Class 11

Answer»

Right option is (a) Yes

The explanation: Obviously, F(X) is CONTINUOUS at [1, 2]

And, f(x) DIFFERENTIABLE at [1, 2]

Also, f(1) = f(2) = 2

Now, f’(x) = 0

=> 2x – 3 = 0

=> x = 3/2

Thus, x belongs to [1, 2]

Hence, it is verified.
