2. Introduction
The relationship involving the rate
of change of two variables,
but also needed to know the direct
relationship between the two
variables
For example, we may know the
velocity of an object at a particular
time, but we may want to know the
position of the object at that time.
To find this direct relationship, we
need to use the process which is
opposite to differentiation. This is
called integration (or anti-
differentiation).
The processes of integration are
used in many applications
3. Background
An important concept in
mathematics,
Defined informally to be the net
signed area of the region in the xy-
plane bounded by the graph of
ƒ, the x-axis, and the vertical lines
x = a and x = b
May also refer to the notion of
antiderivative, a function F whose
derivative is the given function ƒ
the basic tools of calculus, with
numerous applications in
science, business and engineering
4. Background
Example
x = 0 to x = 1 and y = f(0) = 0 and
y = f(1) = 1.
Its area is exactly 1.
Decreasing the width of the
approximation rectangles shall
give a better result; so cross the
interval in five steps, using the
approximation points
0, 1⁄5, 2⁄5, and so on to 1.
Thus √1⁄5, √2⁄5, and so on to
√1 = 1.
5. Background
Basic knowledge of derivatives is a must
Definition:
The differential of y = f(x) is written: dy = f '(x)dx.
Example:
Find the differential of y = 3x5- x.
Answer
dy = f'(x)dx
dy = (15x4 - 1)dx
6. History
Integration can be traced as far back
as ancient Egypt before 1800 BC
Further developed and employed by
Archimedes and used to calculate
areas for parabolas
Similar methods were independently
developed in China around the 3rd
century AD by Liu Hui
Next major step in integral calculus
came in Iraq when the 11th century
mathematician Ibn al-Haytham
(known as Alhazen in Europe
Also formulated independently by
Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz
in the late 17th century
7. History
Acquired a firmer footing
with the development of
limits and was given a
suitable foundation by
Cauchy in the first half of
the 19th century,
Integration was first
rigorously formalized, using
limits, by Riemann ,
Other definitions of
integral, extending
Riemann's and Lebesgue's
approaches, were
proposed.
8. Techniques of integration
Various techniques of
integration
Integration by general
rule
Integration by exponential
form
Integration by parts
Integration by substitution
Etc.
14. Application of Integration
The Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur
experience high forces due to winds.
Integration was used to design the
building for strength.
The Sydney Opera House is a very
unusual design based on slices out of a
ball. Many differential equations (one
type of integration) were solved in the
design of this building.
Historically,one of the first uses of
integration was in finding the volumes of
wine-casks (which have a curved
surface).
15. Benefits of integration in
Business
Introduce new applications
and technologies more
efficiently and at a lower cost
More easily modify and
automate business processes
to meet new needs
Provide more delivery
channels for your organization
Replacing batch processing
with real-time communication
Linking back-office systems to
new applications .
Sharing data between System
16. Benefits of integration in
Business
Commercial organizations use mathematics
in
accounting,
Inventory management,
Marketing,
Sales forecasting, and
Financial analysis
19. Conclusion
Very important mathematical tool
Used in many fields
Important in business
Helps to estimate things like
Marginal cost
Marginal revenue
Profit
Gross loss
Etc.
