Homework Statement



Let ##[a,b]## and ##[c,d]## be closed intervals in ##\mathbb{R}## and let ##f## be a continuous real valued function on ##\{(x,y)\in E^2 : x\in[a,b], \ y\in[c,d]\}.## We have that ##\int^d_c\left(\int^b_af(x,y)dx\right)dy## and ##\int^b_a\left(\int^d_cf(x,y)dy\right)dx## exist.

Homework Equations



None


The Attempt at a Solution



I am wondering how this was solved?

Why is that from the fundamental theorem of calculus we get ##\frac{d}{dt}\int^t_a\left(\int^d_cf(x,y)dy\right)dx## ##=## ##\int^d_cf(t,y)dy## ?

Let F: [a,b] \to \mathbb{R}: x \mapsto \int_c^d f(x,y)\,dy, and apply the fundamental theorem of calculus to \frac{d}{dt}\int_a^t F(x)\,dx.
 
I am not sure what exactly to do. Can you elaborate further please?

Can you please cite what exactly you mean with "the fundamental theorem of calculus"?

There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
