Support · Mathematics Advanced 11–12 – Year 12 · Integral calculus
Support Use definite integrals to solve problems involving the areas of regions bounded by the graph of the continuous function y = f(x), the y -axis and the lines y = a and y = b, in cases where x ≥ 0 throughout a ≤ y ≤ b, x ≤ 0 throughout a ≤ y ≤ b or where x changes sign in the interval a ≤ y ≤ b with or without the graph provided

Define the average rate of change of y with respect to x for a function y = f(x) over the domain [a,b] as (Δy)/(Δx) = (change iny)/(change inx), that is (Δy)/(Δx) = (f(b) - f(a))/(b - a), and recognise (f(b) - f(a))/(b - a) as the gradient of the secant through (a,f(a)) and (b,f(b)) on the graph of y = f(x)
