Suppose ff is continuous on [0,3][0,3] with f(0)=4f(0)=-4 and f(3)=1f(3)=1. Which statement is guaranteed by the Intermediate Value Theorem?

A.There is a cc in (0,3)(0,3) with f(c)=2f(c)=2.
B.There is a cc in (0,3)(0,3) with f(c)=0f(c)=0.
C.ff is differentiable on (0,3)(0,3).
D.f(c)=0f(c)=0 for every cc in (0,3)(0,3).

Explanation

Core Concept

Since ff is continuous and f(0)=4<0<1=f(3)f(0)=-4<0<1=f(3), the IVT guarantees some cc in (0,3)(0,3) where f(c)=0f(c)=0.

Correct Answer

BThere is a cc in (0,3)(0,3) with f(c)=0f(c)=0.
