Average value over a region

Problem 11.537 · easy

Find the average value of \( \displaystyle f(x, y) = e^{x + y} \) over \( \displaystyle R = [0, 1] \times [0, 1] \).

The average is (1/area) ∬_R f dA.

\[ \int\limits_{0}^{1}\int\limits_{0}^{1} e^{x + y}\, dx\, dy = - e + 1 + e \left(-1 + e\right) \]
The double integral.✓ Proved
\[ - e + 1 + e \left(-1 + e\right) = - 2 e + 1 + e^{2} \]
Divide by the area 1.✓ Proved

Answer \( - 2 e + 1 + e^{2} \)

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 2026-10-23 with SymPy 1.14.0.
