TypeMean value of function
DifficultyEasy -1.2 This is a straightforward application of the mean value formula requiring only integration of a simple polynomial and division by the interval length. While it's a Further Maths question, the technique is routine with no problem-solving or conceptual challenge beyond recalling the formula.
