15.1 Double Integrals over Rectangles Volumes and Double Integrals A function f of two variables defind on a closed rectangle and we suppose that The graph of f is a surface with equation Let S be the solid that lies above R and under the graph of f ,that is ,
(See Figure 1)Find the volume of S 1) Partition: The first step is to divide the rectangle R into subrectangles. Each with area
2) Approximation: A thin rectangular box: Base: Hight: We can approximate by
3) Sum: A double Riemann sum 4) Limit:

15.2 Iterated Integrals Partial integration with respect to y defines a function of x: We integrate A with respect to x from x=a to x=b, we get
The integral on the right side is called an iterated integral and is denoted by Thus Similarly
Fubini’s theorem If f is continuous on the rectangle then More generally, this is true that we assume that f is bounded on R , f is discontinuous only on a finite number of smooth curves, and the iterated integrals exist. The proof of Fubini’s theorem is too difficult to include In our class.
If f (x,y) ≥0,then we can interpret the double integral as the volume V of the solid S that lies above R and under the surface z=f(x, y). So

Properties of Double Integral Suppose that functions f and g are continuous on a bounded closed region D. Property 1 The double integral of the sum (or difference) of two functions exists and is equal to the sum (or difference) of their double integrals, that is, Property 2 Property 3 where D is divided into two regions D1 and D2 and the area of D1 ∩ D2 is 0.
Property 4 If f(x, y) ≥0 for every (x, y) ∈D, then Property 5 If f(x, y)≤g(x, y) for every (x, y) ∈D, then Moreover, since it follows from Property 5 that hence
Property 6 Suppose that M and m are respectively the maximum and minimum values of function f on D, then where S is the area of D. Property 7 (The Mean Value Theorem for Double Integral) If f(x, y) is continuous on D, then there exists at least a point (ξ,η) in D such that where S is the area of D. f (ξ,η) is called the average Value of f on D
