Exercise · ZW-DOUBLE-INTEGRAL-001 · ★☆☆ Basic

Compute \(\iint_R 5\,dA\) over the rectangle \(R=[1,4]\times[0,2]\).

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • B. \(30\)

Explanation

For a constant \(c\), \(\iint_R c\,dA=c\cdot\text{area}(R)\). The area is \(3\cdot2=6\), so the integral is \(5\cdot6=30\).

Review the concept: Double integral

The double integral of a function \(f\) over a region \(D\) of the plane is the limit of the sums of the values of \(f\) times the area \(\Delta A\) of ever finer cells covering \(D\).

\[\iint_D f(x,y)\,dA=\lim_{\max\Delta A_i\to0}\sum_i f(x_i^*,y_i^*)\,\Delta A_i\]
