Get started for freeUse a graphing utility to graph the function over the interval. Find the average value of the function over the interval. Then find all \(x\) -values in the interval for which the function is equal to its average value. $$ f(x)=4-x^{2} \quad[-2,2] $$
The integrand of the definite integral is a difference of two functions. Sketch the graph of each function and shade the region whose area is represented by the integral. $$ \int_{-4}^{0}\left[(x-6)-\left(x^{2}+5 x-6\right)\right] d x $$
Use a computer or programmable calculator to approximate the definite integral using the Midpoint Rule and the Trapezoidal Rule for \(n=4\), \(8,12,16\), and 20. $$ \int_{0}^{4} \sqrt{2+3 x^{2}} d x $$
Use the Midpoint Rule with \(n=4\) to approximate the area of the region. Compare your result with the exact area obtained with a definite integral. $$ f(x)=\sqrt{x}, \quad[0,1] $$
Use a graphing utility to graph the function over the interval. Find the average value of the function over the interval. Then find all \(x\) -values in the interval for which the function is equal to its average value. $$ f(x)=e^{x / 4} \quad[0,4] $$
