This category contains pages concerning Cauchy Mean Value Theorem:


Let $f$ and $g$ be real functions which are continuous on the closed interval $\closedint a b$ and differentiable on the open interval $\openint a b$.

Suppose:

$\forall x \in \openint a b: \map {g'} x \ne 0$


Then:

$\exists \xi \in \openint a b: \dfrac {\map {f'} \xi} {\map {g'} \xi} = \dfrac {\map f b - \map f a} {\map g b - \map g a}$
