    By drawing out a function on a graph and calling the are under the curve between 0 and 1 "a", and from 1 to 2 "b". Then you have:
    3a + 2b = 7
    (a + b) + b = 1
    a = 3, b = -1
    Intergral from 0 to 2 is just a + b again which is 3 -1 = 2.

    Let the integral from 0 to 1 be called A and the integral from 1 to 2 be called B . Then we are looking for A+B. We have a system of equations
    3A+2B=7
    A+2B=1
    Which quickly gives
    A+B=2

    Let I:=∫₀¹ f(x) dx, J:=∫₁² f(x) dx, rewrite the question as a system:
    3I + 2J = 7……….(1)
    (I + J) + J = 1…..(2)
    I + 2J = 1
    I + (7 - 3I) = 1
    -2I = -6
    I = 3
    3(3) + 2J = 7
    2J = -2
    J = -1
    Ans = I + J = 3 - 1 = 2

    This is equivalent to asking:

    x + y = ?
    Which I’m sure we all see is quite easy.

    Before watching: break up the int in the second eqn into integrals over domain [0,1] and (1,2] and then solve simultaneously for the ints then sum the values found: answer seems to be 2
    Okay so it seems I was correct. Thanks for the problem!

    I just solved it as a system of equations. I know the integral of f(x) is simply some area function F(x)
    so 3F(1) - 3F(0) + 2F(2) - 2F(1) = 7
    and F(2) - F(0) + F(2) - F(1) = 1
    I want F(2) - F(0). Notice that if I add those two expressions together the F(1)s cancel and I get
    4F(2) - 4F(0) = 8
    so F(2) - F(0) = 2
    So the integral from 0 to 2 of f(x) is just 2.
    Pretty easy honestly.

    And so on.. thess are just some few
    I searched till 1000 , this continues
    I am wondering if this follows a pattern or just a coincidence

    Alright having a go before watching, hang on this is just simultaneous equations from secondary school! So taking the factors to letters: 3a+2b=7, a+2b=1, therefore 2a=6, a = 3, b=-1, a+b = 2, final answer of combined int = 2. Yeah seems to reflect other comments. Funny way to put what looks like on the outset to be a weird functional equation.
