For this problem, we want to prove that f of x is greater than 0 for any x in the close interval 01.
00:07
If we're given that our f is a continuous function on the close interval 01, f of 0 equals 2, and f has no zeros.
00:17
Now, to prove this, we have to do this using contradiction.
00:22
So let's start with the assumption that f of x is not greater than 0.
00:28
So if f of x is not greater than zero, then you have two cases.
00:33
The first one is it will be equal to zero or f of x will be less than zero.
00:40
So let's start with case one, that f of x equals zero.
00:46
But this will be incorrect because f has no zeros.
00:51
Then let's go to case two.
00:53
Case two is if f of x is less than zero...
