 Solution

The constancy theorem states that a differentiable function on an interval whose derivative vanishes everywhere is constant. At any included endpoints, continuity there is understood.

Indeed, take arbitrary $x<y$ in the interval. The mean value theorem applies on $[x,y]$ and gives $f(y)-f(x)=f^{\prime }(c)(y-x)=0$. Every pair of values is equal, proving the assertion. The interval hypothesis ensures that the whole segment $[x,y]$ lies in the domain.
