1. **Problem statement:** Show that the function satisfies the hypotheses of Rolle's Theorem on the interval [0,4] and find all numbers $c$ in $(0,4)$ such that $f'(c) = 0$ for $f(x) = 3x^2 - 12x + 11$.
2. **Rolle's Theorem conditions:**
- $f$ is continuous on the closed interval $[a,b]$.
- $f$ is differentiable on the open interval $(a,b)$.
- $f(a) = f(b)$.
3. **Check continuity and differentiability:**
- $f(x)$ is a polynomial, so it is continuous and differentiable everywhere, including $[0,4]$ and $(0,4)$.
4. **Check $f(0)$ and $f(4)$:**
- $f(0) = 3(0)^2 - 12(0) + 11 = 11$
- $f(4) = 3(4)^2 - 12(4) + 11 = 3(16) - 48 + 11 = 48 - 48 + 11 = 11$
- Since $f(0) = f(4)$, the third condition is satisfied.
5. **Find $f'(x)$:**
- $f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(3x^2 - 12x + 11) = 6x - 12$
6. **Solve $f'(c) = 0$ for $c$ in $(0,4)$:**
- $6c - 12 = 0$
- $6c = 12$
- $c = 2$
7. **Conclusion:**
- The function satisfies Rolle's Theorem on $[0,4]$.
- The number $c$ in $(0,4)$ such that $f'(c) = 0$ is $c = 2$.
**Final answer:** $c = 2$
