Answer

$f_{\text {ave }}=k$

Work Step by Step

By definition: \[ \frac{1}{A} \iint_{R} f(x, y) d A=f_{\text {ave }} \] When \[ \iint_{R} d A=A \] If $f(x, y)=k,$ then \[ \begin{array}{l} k \iint_{R} d A=\iint_{R} f(x, y) d A \\ k \cdot A=\quad \iint_{R} f(x, y) d A \end{array} \] Divide both sides by $A$ \[ k=\frac{1}{A} \iint_{R} f(x, y) d A \] $f_{\text {ave }}=k$
