3. (Conceptual Application of Mean Value Theorem) Two towns (Towns A and B) share an 80-mile road that travels through a small range of hills with a speed limit of 60mph. At the entrance of each town, there is a Highway Patrol Officer to welcome each traveler who enters each city. Both Highway Patrol Officers maintain a very good line of communication through their radios. One day, the Highway Patrol Officer at Town A reports a sports car, going 60mph, leaving his down at 12pm. The same sports car arrives at Town B at 1pm, traveling at 60mph. Without hesitation, the Highway Patrol Officer at Town B pulls the sports car over and cites the driver with a speeding ticket. Use the Mean Value Theorem to prove why the Highway Patrol Officer at Town B is justified in citing the driver of the sports car.
