For: f(x)=∣ax^n +b∣  when f(α) o f(β) is continuous,  Does there exist a solution:  S=∫_α ^( β) f(x)dx  α<β
For:f(x)=∣axn+bwhenf(α)of(β)iscontinuous,Doesthereexistasolution:S=αβf(x)dxα<β

f: R→R and α<β   (α,β∈R)  with f being defined at x=α,x=β.  f(x)=∣ax^n +b∣ represents the modulus  of a real polynomial,if n∈Z^+ +{0}  and a,b∈R.  Thus, f(x) is continuous ∀x∈R.  ∴ f(x)=∣ax^n +b∣≥0⇒∫_α ^β f(x)dx≥0  ⇒∃S∈R^+ +{0} such that S=∫_α ^β f(x)dx.  S≮0 since f(x)≮0 ∀x∈R.    If n∈Z^− , and α<0<β then ∄S∈C such  that S=∫_α ^β f(x)dx since the integral  does not exist.   ∫_α ^β f(x)dx=∫_α ^0 f(x)dx+∫_0 ^β f(x)dx                     =∫_α ^0 ∣(a/x^n )+b∣dx+∫_0 ^β ∣(a/x^n )+b∣dx  f(0) is undefined so that each of the  above integrals are undefined within  the limit of x→0.
