If $f(x): Bbb RtoBbb R$ is a continuous function and $f(x)+f(3-x)=4$, find the value of $∫_0^3f(x)dx$
If $f(x): Bbb RtoBbb R$ is a continuous function and $f(x)+f(3-x)=4$, find the value of $∫_0^3f(x)dx$
I couldn't understand how to relate the continuity of the function with the given condition to find the integral.

A cheap idea: This question presupposes that if $f(x) + f(3-x) = 4$, then $int_0^3 f$ is always the same value. Since the constant function $f(x) = 2$ is one such function, we have $int_0^3 f = int_0^3 2 dx = 6$.

$int_0^{3}f(3-x)dx=int_0^{3} f(x) dx$ by the substitution $y =3-x$. Hence we get $int_0^{3} f(x) dx+int_0^{3} f(x) dx=int_0^3 4~dx=12$ or $int_0^{3} f(x) dx=6$.

$int_0^{3}f(3-x)dx=int_0^{3} f(x) dx$ by the substitution $y =3-x$. Hence we get $int_0^{3} f(x) dx+int_0^{3} f(x) dx=int_0^3 4~dx=12$ or $int_0^{3} f(x) dx=6$.
