Let SSS, be the set of all functions f:[0,1]→Rf:[0,1]\rightarrow Rf:[0,1]→R, which are continuous on [0,1][0,1][0,1], and differentiable on (0,1)(0,1)(0,1). Then for every fff in SSS, there exists c∈(0,1)c\in (0,1)c∈(0,1), depending on fff, such that.

  1. A

    ∣f(c)−f(1)∣<(1−c)∣f′(c)∣|f(c)-f(1)|<(1-c)|{f}^{'}(c)|∣f(c)−f(1)∣<(1−c)∣f′(c)∣

  2. B

    f(1)−f(c)1−c=f′(c)\frac{f(1)-f(c)}{1-c}={f}^{'}(c)1−cf(1)−f(c)​=f′(c)

  3. C

    ∣f(c)+f(1)∣<(1+c)∣f′(c)∣|f(c)+f(1)|<(1+c)|{f}^{'}(c)|∣f(c)+f(1)∣<(1+c)∣f′(c)∣

  4. D

    ∣f(c)−f(1)∣<∣f′(c)∣|f(c)-f(1)|<|{f}^{'}(c)|∣f(c)−f(1)∣<∣f′(c)∣
