Thread: Riemann integrable

Let f(x) = 1/x^2 when x is between [2,3)
= 2 when x is between [3,4]


a.) prove that f(x) is Riemann integrable on [2,4]. Given epsilon is greater than 0, find a partition P... ( i have no idea what this means. )


b.) find a continuous funciton, F(x), statisfying F(x) = integral of f(t)dt from 2 to x on [2,4]

[QUOTE=Nichelle14]Let f(x) = 1/x^2 when x is between [2,3)
= 2 when x is between [3,4]


a.) prove that f(x) is Riemann integrable on [2,4].
Because it is countinous on this interval.

I have no idea what you mean by that. Perhaps they ask to find some partion which statisfies the Riemann integral?

You have,

Thus,
