Example for equality of Integral.

239 Views Asked by At

Let $f,g$ be bounded real valued function defined on $[a,b] \subset \mathbb{R}$. My source says that:

Suppose that $f(x)< g(x)$ for all $x\in [a,b]$ and $f,g$ are Riemann Integrable on $[a,b]$.

Then $\int_a^b f \leq \int_a^b g$.

I do not understand why $\le$ is used instead of $<$.

Is this meant to imply that the equality case exists? If so, could you provide an example?

Thanks for your help.
