5.12 Rules for combining integrals

Proposition

For integrable functions ff and gg, real numbers a,ba,b and cc, and a constant AA, the following hold:

(f(x)+g(x))dx=f(x)dx+g(x)dx;\int(f(x)+g(x))\,dx=\int f(x)\,dx+\int g(x)\,dx; i
Af(x)dx=Af(x)dx;\int Af(x)\,dx=A\int f(x)\,dx; ii
abf(x)dx=-baf(x)dx;\int_{a}^{b}f(x)\,dx=-\int_{b}^{a}f(x)dx; iii
