Description: Employs Rolle's theorem (i.e., if f(a) = f(b), the tangent to the curve at c, where c is between a and b, will be horizontal) to derive the Theorem of the Mean. Develops the intermediate function to which Rolle's theorem can be applied. Uses as an example a rate-distance problem involving a speeding college student., Employs Rolle's theorem (i.e., if f(a) = f(b), the tangent to the curve at c, where c is between a and b, will be horizontal) to derive the Theorem of the Mean.
