(0:00) Mean Value Theorem statement
(3:28) f(x)=x^3 over [a,b]=[-2,3]. Are the hypotheses and conclusion of the MVT satisfied? If the conclusion is satisfied, find the value(s) of c.
(7:22) f(x)=sin^-1(x) over [a,b]=[-1,1] (the arcsine or inverse sine function). Are the hypotheses and conclusion of the MVT satisfied? If the conclusion is satisfied, find the value(s) of c.
(11:31) f(x)=|x|=abs(x) over [a,b]=[-1,1] (the absolute value function). Are the hypotheses and conclusion of the MVT satisfied? If the conclusion is satisfied, find the value(s) of c.
(13:34) f(x)=x^(1/3)=cuberoot(x) over [a,b]=[-1,8] (cube root function). Are the hypotheses and conclusion of the MVT satisfied? If the conclusion is satisfied, find the value(s) of c.
(16:46) Find a tangent line using the Mean Value Theorem
(19:13) Prove the Increasing Function Theorem by using the Mean Value Theorem
(26:24) Prove f(x)=x^3+x is an increasing function over the real number line R
(29:27) Use Constant Function Theorem to prove a general solution of the differential equation y’=y is y=Ce^x
(36:46) Use the Racetrack Principle to prove ln(x) is less than or equal to x – 1 for all x greater than or equal to 1
