Provide an appropriate response.Use the Intermediate Value Theorem to prove that x(x - 2)2 = 2 has a solution between 1 and 3.

What will be an ideal response?


Let f(x) = x(x - 2)2 and let y0 = 2.   and  Since f is continuous on  and since  is between  and  by the Intermediate Value Theorem, there exists a c in the interval  with the property that  Such a c is a solution to the equation
