Which could be the next step in simplifying this expression?
24 + (6 + 29)
a. 24 • 6 + 24 • 29 (use the distributive property)
b. 24 • 6 + 29 (use the associative property)
c. (24 + 6) + 29 (use the associative property)
d. 24 + 6 • 29 (use the commutative property)

Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the mean value theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x^2 + 3x + 4, [−1, 1] no, f is continuous on [−1, 1] but not differentiable on (−1, 1). no, f is not continuous on [−1, 1]. yes, f is continuous on [−1, 1] and differentiable on (−1, 1) since polynomials are continuous and differentiable on . there is not enough information to verify if this function satisfies the mean value theorem. yes, it does not matter if f is continuous or differentiable; every function satisfies the mean value theorem.
