I need help with a calculus question. I know all the steps to get the answer (which i will post) I just dont understand them. So it should be a pretty easy problem to help with
evaluate the definite integral by the limit definition. the problem is \[\int\limits_{4}^{10} 6 dx\]
step 1: y=6 on [4,10] (note: \[\Delta x=\frac{ 10-4 }{ n }=\frac{ 6 }{ n } , \left| \left| \Delta \right| \right| \rightarrow 0 (as) n \rightarrow \infty \]
which part do you need explanation?
all of it. im not sure of why anything is done. do you want me to finish putting the steps up?
in order to evaluate the integral, absent formulas to evaluate it, you have to resort to using the limit definition of the integral.
to solve\[\int_4^{10} 6 dx\] is to evaluate \[\lim_{ n \rightarrow +\infty} \sum_{i=1}^{n}6 \Delta x\]
\[\sum_{i-1}^{n} F(c _{i}) \Delta x _{i}\] \[\sum_{i-1}^{n} f(4+\frac{ 6i }{ n })(\frac{ 6 }{ n } ) \] \[\sum_{i-1}^{n} 6 (\frac{ 6 }{ n })\] \[\sum_{i-1}^{n}\frac{ 36 }{ n }\] \[\frac{ 1 }{ n }\sum_{i-1}^{n}36\] \[\frac{ 1 }{ n }(36n)\] =36
the rest of the steps :)
we state for the record (^^) \(f(x)=6,\,a=4,\,b=10\) then compute the parts of the limit definition.
\[\Delta x=\frac{6}{n}\]
