Math Problem Statement

Evaluate the integral \( \int_0^6 6 \, dx \).

Solution

The given expression is a definite integral:

066dx\int_0^6 6 \, dx

Solution:

Since the integrand is a constant 66, we can integrate it with respect to xx.

6dx=6x+C\int 6 \, dx = 6x + C

Now, we apply the limits from 0 to 6:

[6x]06=6(6)6(0)\left[ 6x \right]_0^6 = 6(6) - 6(0)

6(6)=36and6(0)=06(6) = 36 \quad \text{and} \quad 6(0) = 0

Thus, the value of the integral is:

360=3636 - 0 = 36

Final Answer:

066dx=36\int_0^6 6 \, dx = 36
