The Mean Value Theorem:
If a function is continuous on [ a, b ] and differentiable on ( a , b ) than there is a point c in ( a, b ) such that:
f ( c )= ( f ( b ) - f ( a ) ) / ( b - a )
f ( c ) = ( f ( 2 ) - f ( 0 ) ) / ( 2 - 0 )
f ( x ) = 10 x - 3
f ( c ) = 10 c - 3
2 f ( c ) = 16 - 2
f ( c ) = 7
7 = 10 c - 3
c = 1
Answer:
Yes, the function is continuous on [ 0, 2 ] and differentiable on ( 0, 2 ).
