Rolle's Theorem is not applicable to f(x) = |x| in (-2, 2), because:
f(2) ≠ f(-2)
is not continuous in [-2, 2]
LHL ≠ RHL at x = 0
is not derivable in (-2, 2)
(x) = | x | is continuous in [-2, 2].
Also (2) = (-2) = 2, but (x) is not derivable in (-2, 2)
We can’t apply rolle’s theorem on f(x) = |x| on the interval [-2, 2] because -
Statement 1: If g(x) is a differentiable function, g(2)≠0, g(−2)≠0 and Rolle's theorem is not applicable to f(x) =x2−4g(x) in [−2,2], then g(x) has at least one root in (−2,2). Statement 2: If f(a)=f(b), then Rolle's theorem is applicable for x∈(a,b)
f is not continuous on [ –1, 1]
