Mean Value Theorem for Derivatives Calculus 1 AB

I introduce the Mean Value Theorem in Calculus and work through an example.

You are my hero. Thank you so much. And as for the Professor Bean comments, smart is sexy. :) Your wife is very lucky, and so are we. As an older student, you have been a God send. Answer to prayers literally. Thanks again.

That just shows that you ARE paying attention...and we teachers love that!

[profrobbob]

You're welcome Michael! Thanks for choosing mine to learn from...and please tell your friends where to find me and to like and subscribe to support:D

NICE CATCH…Evidently you are the first one to ever watch this video to the end…I don't know where the example went:(
The last example was a absolute value function with it's sharp bend within the closed interval so the MVT theorem would not have applied.

Your attention to detail when explaining these concepts are always amazing and exactly what I need! Thank you for creating these online lecture videos! Best of luck to you!

THANK YOU Rene, what a kind thing to say...you made my day!!!
Thanks for your continued support too:)

There was no "BAM, go do your homework" on this one. Now I have an excuse not to do homework!

...Good day Professor Tarrou, What you could add to this theorem (MVT) is: "...then there exists AT LEAST a number "c" in (a, b) such that...". This is the Dutch formulation of the MVT. Professor, you have a beautiful and pleasant handwriting for a blackboard. Many thanks for your unwavering commitment to education in general... Greetings from Holland, Jan-W

I used you last semester for pre-calculus trig when I started to have problems. Completely forgot about how well you teach till I started struggling with this subject in my calculus class. Your videos are the best one's I have found online. Should have remembered you when I was having trouble with implicit differentiation. Thanks for your videos!!!

Thank you professor . I've been watching your videos for one year, and they're really helpful !

[ghostfrom]

I wish instead of logging on to my professor's Zoom lectures at 8AM, I just had to watch your videos. Would save me a tremendous amount of time these days

You are an awesome teacher.
Thank you for making this concept so clear for us.

When the other YouTubers don't make sense I watch ProfRobBob. :)

Yet again, you have saved my life.
Thank you, Prof!

Thank you so much for these videos. I supplement my study with these videos and they are immensely helpful! High A in Calc 1, thanks!

Your videos are so helpful. I cleared my concept for so many topics from your videos. Its really helpful. 
Btw, I am curious to know that, after your blackboard space gets over, you just press a button in a remote control 
and the whole writing just slides away like in a multimedia presentation. How you do that when you are writing on that blackboard?

Nice video!  One point to consider re: the "non-example" -- you drew a curve which has a sharp turn, but there is still a tangent that is parallel to the chord.  i.e. the hypothesis is false, but the conclusion is still true.  Would it be more effective to show an example where there is no tangent line parallel to the chord?  For instance, y = abs(x) on the interval (-1, 4).  Thanks again for posting this video!

[VenessaWallace]

Thanks alot =]
You just must made this whole process crystal clear!

[زكرياءالريطب-زد]

And you can plug the "4" in the original function to find the "y" value of c. Thank you sir, you have been my savior 👋

Great video!! Is there a video on the squeeze theorem? I can't seem to find it :/
