To solve the problem using Lagrange's Mean Value Theorem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the function and interval We are given the function \( y = \sqrt{x - 2} \) defined on the interval \([2, 3]\). ### Step 2: Verify the conditions of the Mean Value Theorem 1. **Continuity**: The function \( y = \sqrt{x - 2} \) is continuous on the closed interval \([2, 3]\) because the square root function is continuous for \( x \geq 2 \). 2. **Differentiability**: The function is differentiable on the open interval \((2, 3)\) because the derivative exists for all \( x > 2 \). ...
