Homework Statement
The question:
The function F(θ,k) is defined as
[tex]F(\theta,k)=\int_0^θ (f(x,k))\mathrm{d}x[/tex]
Find expressions for [itex]\left({\frac{\partial F}{\partial \theta}}\right)_k[/itex] and [itex]\left({\frac{\partial F}{\partial k}}\right)_θ[/itex]
Homework Equations
Fundamental theory of calculus
Chain rule?
The Attempt at a Solution
I think [itex]\left({\frac{\partial F}{\partial \theta}}\right)_k[/itex] is just [itex]f(\theta,k)[/itex] - is that correct? or is it [itex]f(\theta,0)[/itex] because [itex]k[/itex] is held constant so when it is differentiated it will be 0.
I'm a little stumped by the second part. Is there some way to re-express it in terms of [itex]\left({\frac{\partial F}{\partial\theta}}\right)_k[/itex] using the chain rule?
