Answer:

Measurements were needed for multiple things, such as agriculture, construction, and trade. Also, many areas developed their own systems for measuring objects making it difficult as people from different places had different results. Eventually, the same system was adopted by the majority of people.

How do you find the value of c that satisfy the equation:

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The value of c = -0.5∈ (-1,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given function f(x) = 4x² +4x -3 on the interval [-1 ,0]

Mean Value theorem

Let 'f' be continuous on [a ,b] and differentiable on (a ,b). The there exists a Point 'c' in (a ,b) such that

$f^{l} (c) = \frac{f(b) -f(a)}{b-a}$

Step(ii):-

Given f(x) = 4x² +4x -3 …(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x'

f¹(x) = 4(2x) +4(1) = 8x+4

Step(iii):-

By using mean value theorem

$f^{l} (c) = \frac{f(0) -f(-1)}{0-(-1)}$

$8c+4 = \frac{-3-(4(-1)^2+4(-1)-3)}{0-(-1)}$

8c+4 = -3-(-3)

8c+4 = 0

8c = -4

$c = \frac{-4}{8} = \frac{-1}{2} = -0.5$

c ∈ (-1,0)

Conclusion:-

The value of c = -0.5∈ (-1,0)
