The expression is ,
.
Intermediate value theorem :
\The function is continuous on the closed interval
, let
be the number between
and
, where
then exist a number
in
such that
.
Prove that the number exists between
and
such that
.
Consider the function is .
Substitute in the function.
.
Substitute in the function.
Thus .
The function is continuous since it is a polynomial.
The intermediate value theorem says there is between
and
such that
.
\
The value exists between
and
such that
.
