For a rectangular region with constant limits and an integrand \( f(x)g(y) \), the double integral

  • A.cannot be evaluated without changing the order
  • B.requires a Jacobian factor to be inserted
  • C.equals the product of the two single integrals
  • D.equals the sum of the two single integrals

Answer: C

When the limits do not depend on the other variable and the integrand factorises, the inner integral of \( g \) is a constant that passes out of the outer one:

\[ \iint f(x)g(y)\,dA \;=\; \left(\int f(x)\,dx\right)\left(\int g(y)\,dy\right). \]

Both conditions are needed: a variable limit or a non-separable integrand destroys the factorisation
