Using the Mean Value Theorem In Exercises 37–46, determine whether the Mean Value Theorem can be applied to f on the closed interval [a, b]. If the Mean Value Theorem can be applied, find all values of c in the open interval (a, b) such that
If the Mean Value Theorem cannot be applied, explain why not.
