Which of the following sets of hypothesis guarantees that a real-valued function ff defined on [a,b][a,b] has at least one real number cc in (a,b)(a,b) such that f(c)=0f(c)=0? a) ff is differentiable on (a,b)(a,b) and f(a)=f(b)=0f(a)=f(b)=0. b) ff is continuous on [a,b][a,b] and f(a)f(a) and f(b)f(b) have opposite signs. c) ff is differentiable on (a,b)(a,b) and f(a)f(a) and f(b)f(b) have opposite signs. d) ff is continuous on [a,b][a,b] and f(a) f(b)>0f(a)\,f(b)>0.
