Objectives for Section 5.5 Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
The student will be able to evaluate definite integrals. The student will be able to calculate the average value of a function using the definite integral.

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
If f is a continuous function on the closed interval [a, b], and F is any antiderivative of f, then

Evaluating Definite Integrals
By the fundamental theorem we can evaluate easily and exactly. We simply calculate

Example Make a drawing to confirm your answer. 0 ≤ x ≤ 4 –1 ≤ y ≤ 6
7
Example Make a drawing to confirm your answer. 0 ≤ x ≤ 4 –1 ≤ y ≤ 4
8
Example 0 ≤ x ≤ 4 –2 ≤ y ≤ 10
9
Example Let u = 2x, du = 2 dx
10
Example
11
Example This is a combination of the previous three problems
12
Example Let u = x3 + 4, du = 3x2 dx
13
Example (revisited) On the previous slide, we made the back substitution from u back to x. Instead, we could have just evaluated the definite integral in terms of u:

Numerical Integration on a Graphing Calculator
Use some of the examples from previous slides: Example 5: 0 ≤ x ≤ 3 –1 ≤ y ≤ 3 Example 7: –1 ≤ x ≤ 6 –0.2 ≤ y ≤ 0.5

Example From past records a management service determined that the rate of increase in maintenance cost for an apartment building (in dollars per year) is given by M ´(x) = 90x2 + 5,000, where M(x) is the total accumulated cost of maintenance for x years. Write a definite integral that will give the total maintenance cost from the end of the second year to the end of the seventh year. Evaluate the integral.

Using Definite Integrals for Average Values
The average value of a continuous function f over [a, b] is Note this is the area under the curve divided by the width. Hence, the result is the average height or average value.
18
Example The total cost (in dollars) of printing x dictionaries is C(x) = 20, x Find the average cost per unit if 1000 dictionaries are produced. Find the average value of the cost function over the interval [0, 1000]. Write a description of the difference between part a) and part b). Section 6.5, #70
19
Example (continued) a) Find the average cost per unit if 1000 dictionaries are produced Solution: The average cost is
20
Example (continued) b) Find the average value of the cost function over the interval [0, 1000] Solution:
21
Example (continued) c) Write a description of the difference between part a and part b Solution: If you just do the set-up for printing, it costs $20,000. This is the cost for printing 0 dictionaries. If you print 1,000 dictionaries, it costs $30,000. That is $30 per dictionary (part a). If you print some random number of dictionaries (between 0 and 1000), on average it costs $25,000 (part b). Those two numbers really have not much to do with one another.

Summary We can evaluate a definite integral by the fundamental theorem of calculus: We can find the average value of a function f by
