Average value over a region
Problem 11.477 · easy
Find the average value of \( \displaystyle f(x, y) = e^{x + y} \) over \( \displaystyle R = [0, 2] \times [0, 3] \).
- The average is (1/area) ∬_R f dA.Reviewed
- \[ \int\limits_{0}^{3}\int\limits_{0}^{2} e^{x + y}\, dx\, dy = - e^{2} + 1 + \left(-1 + e^{2}\right) e^{3} \]The double integral.✓ Proved
- \[ - \frac{e^{2}}{6} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{\left(-1 + e^{2}\right) e^{3}}{6} = - \frac{e^{3}}{6} - \frac{e^{2}}{6} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{e^{5}}{6} \]Divide by the area 6.✓ Proved
Answer \( - \frac{e^{3}}{6} - \frac{e^{2}}{6} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{e^{5}}{6} \)

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate
method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence,
not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by
generator:structured/average_value_2var, checked 2026-10-18 with SymPy 1.14.0.
