$f (x) = 2 x$ , $(0, 6)$

Step 1

The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.

Interval Notation:

$(- \infty, \infty)$

Set-Builder Notation:

${x | x \in ℝ}$

Step 2

$f (x)$ is continuous on $[0, 6]$ .

$f (x)$ is continuous

Step 3

The average value of function $f$ over the interval $[a, b]$ is defined as $A (x) = \frac{1}{b - a} \int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x$ .

$A (x) = \frac{1}{b - a} \int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x$

Step 4

Substitute the actual values into the formula for the average value of a function.

$A (x) = \frac{1}{6 - 0} (\int_{0}^{6} 2 x d x)$

Step 5

Since $2$ is constant with respect to $x$ , move $2$ out of the integral.

$A (x) = \frac{1}{6 - 0} (2 \int_{0}^{6} x d x)$

Step 6

By the Power Rule, the integral of $x$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{1}{2} x^{2}$ .

$A (x) = \frac{1}{6 - 0} (2 (\frac{1}{2} x^{2}]_{0}^{6}))$
