For the first one
let g(y) = 1 / [y-f(1)] + 2/[y-f(2)] +3/[y-f(3)] g' (y) = -(1/[y-f(1)]2 + 2/[ y-f(2)]2 + 3/ [y-f(3)]2) since g '(y) is negative summ of squares , its always negative so, g '(y) < 0 g(y) is strictly decreasing function here f(1) = 102 + 7 sin1 and f(2) = 212 + 7 sin2 clearly f(2) > f(1) g( f(1) + 0 ) ---> infinity g( f(2) - 0 ) ---> - infinity So, the mean value theorem between ( -infinity,infinity) as 0 will lie btn y=f(1) & y=f(2) hence proved
