The smallest positive integer that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3.
What is the intermediate value theorem?
Intermediate value theorem is theorem about all possible y-value in between two known y-value.
x-intercepts
-x^2 + x + 2 = 0
x^2 - x - 2 = 0
(x + 1)(x - 2) = 0
x = -1, x = 2
y intercepts
f(0) = -x^2 + x + 2
f(0) = -0^2 + 0 + 2
f(0) = 2
(Graph attached)
From the graph we know the smallest positive integer value that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3
For proof, the zero exists when x = 2 and f(3) = -4 < 0 and f(0) = 2 > 0.
<em>Your question is not complete, but most probably your full questions was</em>
<em>Given the polynomial f(x)=− x 2 +x+2 , what is the smallest positive integer a such that the Intermediate Value Theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a ?</em>
Thus, the smallest positive integer that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3.

Answer:
x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for x, you need to isolate it on one side of the equal sign. So in this case you need to multiply both sides by 4, in order to cancel the dividing factor 4 that appears in the denominator :
