Answer:
Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.
Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or
an [a,b] entirely to the right of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.
Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.
Subtracting 3x^4+9x^3+3x^2 from the divided and bringing down 13x.
721,000 should be the answer. took me a little while though haha
6x + 4y = 12...subtract 6x from both sides
4y = -6x + 12 ...divide both sides by 4
(4/4)y = (-6/4)x + 12/4...reduce
y = -3/2x + 4 <== y = mx + b
