The value of c in Rolle's theorem for t...

The value of `c` in Rolle's theorem for the function `f(x) = x^(3) - 3x` in the interval `[0,sqrt(3)]` is

A

`1`

B

`-1`

C

`3/2`

D

`1/3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`:' f'(c ) = 0` , `[:' f'(x) = 3x^(2)-3]`
`rArr 3c^(2)-3=0`
`rArr c^(2) = 3/3 = 1`
`rArr c = +- 1`, where `1 in (0, sqrt(3))`
` :. c = 1`
