thank you for explaining open/closed interval
-
photosynthesis, respiration, mean value theorem...khan academy is always there to help me when i need it (and thank god - my grade would have suffered greatly without it)
-
@Oboeplayer511 you just made that up
-
Why can't teachers and textbooks just explain right on the spot with simple words instead of trying to make it sound all scholarly and beating around the bush?
-
Say the interval is [a,b], can C be equal to a? or just the open interval ( A point somewhere between a and b )?
-
you make my life so much easier you have no idea. my book makes no sense to me but you make it make sense. thank you so much!
-
hi, im a fellow youtuber and i think your channel is really awesome i subbed :)

It's cool if you solve this for a general quadratic; Ax^2+Bx+C for the interval [h,k]
(A(h^2)+B(h)+C)-(A(k)^2+B(k)+C))/(h-k)=2Ax+B (derivative of the general quadratic)
(A(h^2)-A(k)^2+B(h)-B(k))/(h-k)=2Ax+B
(A(h^2-k^2)+B(h-k))/(h-k)=2Ax+B
(A(h-k)(h+k)+B(h-k))/(h-k)=2Ax+B
A(h+k)+B=2Ax+B
A(h+k)=2Ax
x=(h+k)/2
so the x-coordinate for any parabola where the average slope is equal to the slope of the derivative at the point is equal to the average of the endpoints of that interval...FASCINATING
