Yes, f is continuous on [1, 9] and differentiable on (1, 9).

Step-by-step explanation:

The natural log function is continuous and differentiable on its domain of (0, ∞). So, it is continuous on any closed interval contained within this domain.

The function satisfies the hypotheses of the Mean Value Theorem on the interval [1, 9].
