  • The Mean Value Theorem states that if a function f is continuous on the closed interval [a,b] and differentiable on the open interval (a,b), then there exists a point c in the interval (a,b) such that f'(c) is equal to the function's average rate of change over [a,b]. In other words, the graph has a tangent somewhere in (a,b) that is parallel to the secant line over [a,b]. Created by Sal Khan.

      you see why and how they got the formula you are using the f(b)-f(a) / b-a is all good and makes sense y2-y1 / x2-x1 basic slope formula but he makes you really see where its from so you can understand what to do and not memorize the formulas and what to do and when to use them and in what order. i think strictly in a visual manner. i've been using khan academy all through high school and even now in college

    One thing im not able to understand is why do we use the open interval to describe the differentiability.
    How would it hurt if we included a,b?

  • @victorserras
    @victorserras 6 лет назад +4

    Khan Academy is good to get an intuitive sense about conceps but don't rely on intuitive sense alone. You need the formal and rigorous understanding of Calculus theorems too, otherwise you'll still get stuck when facing actual problems.

    Can you explain me the reason behind considering differentiable on open interval (a, b) ?

    • @stickmanbattle997
      @stickmanbattle997 2 года назад

      Because if (a,b) is not differentiable even the (a,b) is continuous you can't apply the mean value theorem because for some point is not differentiable it means for a < c < b
      f'(c) ≠ (f(a)-f(b))/(a-b)

    Why the function has to be differential over (a,b) and not [a,b] ?

    • @carlosal1015
      @carlosal1015 11 лет назад +11

      Because by definition of derivative, a differential function on a particular point, I mean that the existence of this limit must equal both the left and the right (theory of limits), I mean that in an open interval can analyze the derived, but not on a closed interval. All differential function must meet limf (x) x to a = f (a). In a closed interval can not analyze whether the lateral limits verified. Greetings from Peru

      It’s used in a lot of other proofs, in my experience. There’s probably a lot of applications in physics I guess.

      @M6BrokeMe 5 лет назад

      @@robbyburns5822 Yeah. I wonder that too. If you can take the derivative, the you already know so much more about the function than just it's average rate of change.
