Mean value Theorem :
\If
is continuous on
and differentiable on open interval
, then there exists a number
in
such that
.
The function is
.
The function has vertical asymptote at
.
So the function is not continuous at
.
The function is not continuous on the closed interval
.
So the mean value theorem does not apply to the function.
\The mean value theorem does not apply to the function.
