1. State the Intermediate Value Theorem in your own words.
2. Which of the following is a necessary condition for the Intermediate Value Theorem to apply to a function f(x) on an interval [a, b]?
f(x) must be differentiable on (a, b).
f(x) must be continuous on [a, b].
f(a) and f(b) must have the same sign.
f(x) must be linear on [a, b].
3. If f(x) is a continuous function on the interval [1, 5] and f(1) = 2 and f(5) = 10, then by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there must exist a value c in the interval (1, 5) such that f(c) = .
4. Use the Intermediate Value Theorem to show that the function f(x) = x³ - 4x + 1 has a root in the interval [0, 1].
5. The Intermediate Value Theorem guarantees that a function f(x) will take on every value between f(a) and f(b) on the interval [a, b] even if f(x) is not continuous on [a, b].
