Q. Wed 17AprApplications of integration: Unit testWhat is the average value of h(x)=2x2−5x+4x3+7x2+3 on the interval [−8,−2] ?Use a graphing calculator and round your answer to three decimal places.□
Calculate Interval Width: To find the average value of a function h(x) on the interval [a,b], use the formula: Average value = (b−a)1⋅∫abh(x)dx.
Set Up Integral: First, calculate the width of the interval: b−a=−2−(−8)=6.
Compute Definite Integral: Now, set up the integral to find the average value: Average value = (1/6)×∫−8−22x2−5x+4x3+7x2+3dx.
Calculate Average Value: Use a graphing calculator to compute the definite integral from −8 to −2 of the function h(x).
Calculate Average Value: Use a graphing calculator to compute the definite integral from −8 to −2 of the function h(x).After calculating the integral on the calculator, suppose we get a value of I (we will not actually compute this value here as it requires a calculator).
Calculate Average Value: Use a graphing calculator to compute the definite integral from −8 to −2 of the function h(x).After calculating the integral on the calculator, suppose we get a value of I (we will not actually compute this value here as it requires a calculator).The average value is then (1/6)×I. Round this to three decimal places as instructed.
