Find the average value of the function y = 6 - x2 over the interval [-1, 4]

Answer:

The average value of the function f(x) = 6 - x^{2} over the interval [-1,4] is \frac{5}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average value of a function over an interval is represented by this integral:

\bar y = \frac{1}{b-a}\cdot \int\limits^{b}_{a} {f(x)} \, dx

Where:

a, b - Lower and upper bounds of the interval, dimensionless.

f(x) - Function, dimensionless.

If a = -1, b = 4 and f(x) = 6 - x^{2}, the average value of the function is:

\bar y = \frac{1}{4-(-1)}\int\limits^{4}_{-1} {6-x^{2}} \, dx

\bar y = \frac{6}{5}\int\limits^{4}_{-1} \, dx - \frac{1}{5}\int\limits^{4}_{-1} {x^{2}} \, dx

\bar y = \frac{6}{5}\cdot x |_{-1}^{4} - \frac{1}{15}\cdot x^{3}|_{-1}^{4}

\bar y = \frac{6}{5}\cdot [4-(-1)]- \frac{1}{15}\cdot [4^{3}-(-1)^{3}]

\bar y = \frac{5}{3}

The average value of the function f(x) = 6 - x^{2} over the interval [-1,4] is \frac{5}{3}.
