For those of you who understand mathematical integration

[Gen. Hothauser]

I am taking calculus online this year to make room for another class during the school day.  Unfortunately, the class is riddled with errors - from typos, to math errors, to incorrect answer choice coding.  Also, since I'm not taking the class during the school day, I end up working at 10 or 11 pm, like right now, so I am often tired and sometimes overlook things.  In the event that I have done so, please correct me, but the below picture (I am fairly certain) is a failed question.



I am between answers (A) and (C) because (B), (D), and (E) are true, and (A) and (C) start with the exact same words that are both incorrect.  What do you guys think?

See things like this are why I hate math with a burning passion. It is like another language.

The integral of e^x

i'm thinking C. average value is 1/(b-a)*integral(f(x)dx from a to b).

they wrote that average value is given by integral(f(x)dx from a to b), and left out the 1/(b-a). given that part two in A is true (satisfying A as true, given the OR), C seems to be the false answer.

Alright, that was the same logic I used, though the questions on this site rarely follow the concept of English and the implications of correct word choice.

Good being a cop or fireman doesn't require the skill of doing complex things with numbers.
