Finding the average value of 4 + x - x³ on [-2, 3]

Finding c using the Mean Value Theorem for Integrals

Intro

Understanding the mean value theorem for integrals

The average value of a function is just the mean value theorem for integrals. In this lesson, we learn that we can find an area of a rectangle that is exactly the same as the area under the curve. Equating them together and algebraically manipulating the equation will give us the formula for the average value. We will be taking a look at some examples of using this formula, as well as using the formula to find the c value that is between a and b. 

What is the average value of a function?

Mastering the Average Value Formula in Calculus

What You'll Learn

Apply the mean value theorem for integrals to find average function values

Calculate the average value using the formula: integral of f(x) from a to b divided by (b - a)

Interpret average value as the height of a rectangle with equal area under the curve

Solve for the c value where f(c) equals the average value within a given interval

Verify solutions by checking if c falls within the specified closed interval

What You'll Practice

Computing average values of polynomial functions on closed intervals

Evaluating definite integrals and dividing by interval length

Finding c values that satisfy f(c) equals the average value

Determining valid solutions within given interval boundaries
