Continuous Function Averages
Standard Average
The average value of \(f(x)\) from a
to b
is:
\[{\int_{a}^{b} f(x) dx \over b - a }\]
Weighted Average
The average value of \(f(x)\) from a
to b
with weights of \(w(x)\) is:
\[{ \int_{a}^{b} w(x)*f(x) dx \over \int_{a}^{b} w(x) dx }\]

Note: this is simply a thought experiment without any real practical use cases. It depends on knowing the cost function...
