Intermediate Value Theorem and Rolle's Theorem to show root
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Use the Intermediate Value Theorem and Rolle's Theorem to show that f(x) = 2x-2-cosx has exactly one root. 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution I'm not really sure what the question is asking for. the theorems I believe are to prove the existence of a point between a closed interval, but I have no interval, and what does it mean by "one root" 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data 2. Relevant equations 3. The attempt at a solution |
