Definition of Definite lntegral If $f$ is defined on the closed interval $[a, b]$ and the limit of Riemann sums over partitions $\Delta$ $\displaystyle \lim_{\Vert\Delta||\rightarrow 0}\sum_{i=1}^{n}f(c_{i})\Delta x_{i}$ exists (as described above), then $f$ is said to be integrable on $[a, b]$ and the limit is denoted by $\displaystyle \lim_{\Vert\Delta\Vert\rightarrow 0}\sum_{i=1}^{n}f(c_{i})\Delta x_{i}=\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx$. The limit is called the definite integral of $f$ from $a$ to $b$. The number $a$ is the lower limit of integration, and the number $b$ is the upper limit of integration. ------------------------ Comparing with the definition: The closed interval: $[a, b]$ = $[-1, 5 ]$ . Substitute $c_{i}$ with $x$: $f(x)=3x+10$ If the limit is defined, then we write, $\displaystyle \lim_{\Vert\Delta]\rightarrow 0}\sum_{i=1}^{n}(3c_{i}+10)\Delta x_{i}=\int_{-1}^{5}(3x+10)dx$
