Average Value of a Function: If f(x) is a function that is continuous on the interval a ≤ x ≤ b, then the average value V of f(x) is ( )baV f x dxb a1=-�. Lorentz curves L(x) are a device used to measure the percentage of a society’s wealth that is possessed by a given percentage of its people. The line y = x represents complete equality; the closer L(x) is to y = x, the more equitable the distribution of wealth. The Gini Index GI is a measure of the inequality of wealth distribution (0 ≤ x ≤ 1); the closer to 0, the more equitable the distribution. It is calculated by GI = ( )x L x dx102� �-� ��.Sketch the given region R and then find its area:1. R is the region bounded by the curves 2.
