Show a function has at most one Root (IVT & Rolles [quick question])
show x^3-15x+c=0 has at most one root on the interval [-2, 2]. My work/attempted solution. Using the IVT i determined that there is a possible root (N=c) within the interval of [-2,2]. because c is my constant i decided to Use [d] as my letter for explanation. f(x)=x^3-15x+c...- LucasCLarson

I remember there being a few from back in high school, but i can't remember them. I know the process for all...- LucasCLarson
