SSC Pure Mathematics QUESTION #1283
Question 1
The function \(f(x)=e^x\) satisfies the Mean Value Theorem on \([0,1]\). The value of \(c\in(0,1)\) guaranteed by MVT satisfies:
  • e^c = e-1✔️
  • \(e^c=\dfrac{e+1}{2}\)
  • e^c=\dfrac{1}{e}
  • e^c=1
Correct Answer Explanation
By MVT: \(f'(c)=\dfrac{f(1)-f(0)}{1-0}=\dfrac{e-1}{1}=e-1\). Since \(f'(x)=e^x\), we get \(e^c=e-1\). Since \(1
