Provide an appropriate response.Decide if the statement is true or false. If false, explain.The points (-1, -1) and (1, 1) lie on the graph of f(x) = 
. Therefore, the Mean Value Theorem insures us that there exists some value x = c on (-1, 1) for which f'(x) = 
= 1.
What will be an ideal response?
False. The function has a non-removable discontinuity at x = 0. The mean value theorem does not apply.
