Consider the second-order divided difference
Prove the formula
f[a,b,c] =
f[b, c-f[a, b]
c-a
f[a,b,c] =f" (c)
for some € (a, b) assuming a <b<e and f (x) and is first two derivatives are continuous and bounded
from above and below on the interval [a, c].
Hint: Use Taylor's theorem to simplify f[a,b,c] by expanding f (2) about z = b and then use the
intermediate value theorem to simplify the remainder term from Taylor's theorem.
