The instantaneous rate of change will equal the mean rate of change somewhere in the interval. Or, the tangent line will be parallel to the secant line.

Extreme Value Theorem
Front
If f is continuous on [a,b] then f has an absolute maximum and an absolute minimum on [a,b]. The global extrema occur at critical points in the interval or at endpoints of the interval.

Critical Number

If f'(c)=0 or does not exist, and c is in the domain of f, then c is a critical number. (Derivative is 0 or undefined)

Let f be continuous on [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b) and if f(a)=f(b) then there is at least one number c on (a,b) such that f'(c)=0 (If the slope of the secant is 0, the derivative must = 0 somewhere in the interval).

Is f continuous @ c?
Is there an inflection point on f @ C?
Front
This is a graph of f'(x). Since f'(C) exists, differentiability implies continuouity, so Yes.
Yes f' decreases on X<C so f''<0
f' increases on X>C so f''>0
A point of inflection happens on a sign change at f''
