Question

What is the difference between a double integral and an iterated integral??

Answer 1

nothing really

Answer 2

a double integral is worked out in the same fashion

Answer 3

its like saying; whats the difference between antidifferentation and integrating ...

Answer 4

Really? Im told in this problem to evaluate a double integral as a iterated integral over a Type 1 region.
I thought they were equivalent and this has made me doubt myself!

Answer 5

the double is modified into an interated if i recall correctly based on how the x and y and such move across the region

Answer 6

but other than that, the double is just a notation for the interated

Answer 7

\[\int\int_D\ f(s)\ ds=\int_{x_0}^{x}\int_{y_0}^{y}f(s)\ dy\ dx\]

Answer 8

look something like that maybe

Answer 9

Ah. Ok. That makes sense. Phew. Not completely clueless
