The abscissa of the points of the curve in the interval , where the slope of the tangents can be obtained by mean value theorem for the interval , are
Explanation for the correct option:
Finding the abscissa of the points of the curve.
The given curve is
Considering
Therefore,
We know that coordinates of every point on the curve be of the form
And in , is called abscissa.
Now differentiating with respect to to find the slope of the tangent
We know according to mean value theorem that slope of tangent
Therefore,
Hence, option (A) is the correct answer.
