Answer the question.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.
