If so, find all values On Saturday morning, I got in my car at 6:28 am and the temperature (in my relatively warm garage) was 52°F. By 6:36 am, the car thermometer showed 28°F. What assumptions must be made to apply the MVT? Be specific to this situation. Assuming the MVT does apply, what does the theorem allow you to conclude? Be specific to this situation. BC1 8. Sample Quiz Sections 3.10-4.2 For each of the following conjectures, decide if it is true or false. For the true statements, give some coherent justification for the statement using complete sentences. For the false statement, draw or otherwise describe a function f which provides a counterexample, and explain why it does. Always assume that [a, b] implies that a b . a. Let a function f on [a, b] be given which is differentiable on (a, b) and continuous on f (b) f (a ) [a,b]. Then there exists a number c (a, b) such that f (c) . ba b. Let f be a continuous function with domain [0, ) , then for each real number a > 0, if L is between f (0) and f (a ) there is number c [0, a ] such that f (c) L . c. Let f be a continuous function with domain (a, b) , then f has a maximum and a minimum value on (a,b). d. Suppose that f is continuous on [a, b] . If f is differentiable at c (a, b) , then f (b) f (a ) f (c) . ba BC1 Sample Quiz Sections 3.10-4.2 9. When you cough, your windpipe contracts. The speed v(r) , with which you expel air depends on the radius r , of your windpipe. If a is the normal (rest) radius of your windpipe, then for 0 £ r £ a the speed is given by v(r ) k (a r ) r where k is a positive constant. What value of r maximizes the speed? For what value is the speed minimized?
