AP Cal: Find average value of F(x) = 3x^2 - 2 on [0, 2]

Re: math (average value)

The average value is given by \(\displaystyle \frac{1}{b-a}\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx\)
 
Re: math (average value)

so do I take [0,2] then do this
1/2-0 which is undefined?

\(\displaystyle \frac{1}{b-a}\, = \, \frac{1}{2-0}\, = \,\frac{1}{2}\)

do not forget the definite integral part.
