Chapter 4 - Section 4.2 - The Mean Value Theorem - Exercises - Page 223: 11

Answer

Yes

Work Step by Step

Here, $f(x)=\sqrt{x (1-x)}$ and $f'(x)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x(1-x))^{-1/2}((1-x)-x)$ . This means that the function $f(x)$ is continuous on $[0,1]$ and differentiable on $(0,1)$. Thus, the Mean value Theorem is satisfied.
