Answer

\[{{f}_{avg}}=\frac{20}{\pi }\]

Work Step by Step

\[\begin{align} & f\left( x \right)=10\sin x,\text{ on the interval }0\le x\le \pi \\ & \text{The average value is given by} \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=\frac{1}{b-a}\int_{a}^{b}{f\left( x \right)dx} \\ & \text{Therefore,} \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=\frac{1}{\pi -0}\int_{0}^{\pi }{10\sin xdx} \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=\frac{10}{\pi }\int_{0}^{\pi }{\sin xdx} \\ & \text{Integrating} \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=\frac{10}{\pi }\left[ -\cos x \right]_{0}^{\pi } \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=-\frac{10}{\pi }\left[ \cos x \right]_{0}^{\pi } \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=-\frac{10}{\pi }\left( \cos \pi -\cos 0 \right) \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=-\frac{10}{\pi }\left( -2 \right) \\ & {{f}_{avg}}=\frac{20}{\pi } \\ \end{align}\]
