Introduction to a Weighted Average Using Integration | Single Variable Calculus | Project Ulim

We introduce the concept of a weighted average by getting some intuition from a discrete example talking about a stock portfolio. A continuous weighted average is something we will be exploring further and applying to things such as center of mass calculations. Project Ulim aims to deliver a world-class computer science education for free.
