Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Recall the formula for the average value of a function f(x) on the interval [a, b]: f_{ave} = (1 / (b - a)) * ∫[a to b] f(x) dx.
Step 2: Identify the interval [a, b] and the function f(x). Here, a = -1, b = 3, and f(x) = 3x^2 + 4x.
Step 3: Set up the integral ∫[a to b] f(x) dx. This becomes ∫[-1 to 3] (3x^2 + 4x) dx.
Step 4: Compute the integral ∫[-1 to 3] (3x^2 + 4x) dx by finding the antiderivative of 3x^2 + 4x, which is (x^3 + 2x^2). Then evaluate this antiderivative at the bounds x = 3 and x = -1.
Step 5: Divide the result of the definite integral by (b - a), which is (3 - (-1)) = 4, to find f_{ave}.
