Properties of Double Integrals

If f ( x, y) and g ( x, y) are continuous, then
1. Constant Multiple :
cf ( x, y )dA c f ( x, y )dA , any constant c
R

2. Sum and Difference:

( f ( x, y) g ( x, y ))dA f ( x, y )dA g ( x, y )dA
R

3. Domination:
(a) f ( x, y)dA 0 if f ( x, y) 0 on R.
(b) f ( x, y)dA g ( x, y)dA if f ( x, y) g ( x, y)
on R.
