Worked example: using the intermediate value theorem
Actually, it is very possible for the function to exceed those values in either direction, especially beyond the concerned interval. The IVT only tells us that for this case, every value between 3 …
Intermediate value theorem (video) | Khan Academy
It was first proved by Bernard Bolzano, and there is in fact a slightly different formulation of IVT that is called Bolzano's theorem. That version states that if a continuous function is positive …
Justification with the intermediate value theorem: equation
The IVT only can be used when we know the function is continuous. If you are climbing a mountain, you know you must walk past the middle in order to get there, no matter how many …

Justification with the intermediate value theorem: table
𝑓 (𝑥) = 0 could have a solution between 𝑥 = 4 and 𝑥 = 6, but we can't use the IVT to say that it definitely has a solution there.
Establishing differentiability for MVT (article) | Khan Academy
By now, we are familiar with three different existence theorems: the intermediate value theorem (IVT), the extreme value theorem (EVT), and the mean value theorem (MVT).
Establishing continuity for EVT and IVT - Khan Academy
The intermediate value theorem (IVT) and the extreme value theorem (EVT) are existence theorems. They guarantee that a certain type of point exists on a graph under certain conditions.
Intermediate value theorem (IVT) review (article) | Khan Academy
If we have a function f (x) defined on an interval (a,b), if both lim (x->a+) f (x) and lim (x->b-) f (x) exist, then we should be able to make some conclusions about IVT being valid. Essentially, …
