How to change from a double to a single integral changing variables?












-1












$begingroup$


So I have the following integral:



$$I_1 = iint u(x,y)dR$$



where $u(x,y)= e^{-(x^2 + y^2)}$



and the region $R$ is the rectangle $[-M,M]times[-M,M]$.



I need to prove that $I_1$ equals:



$$I_2 = left(∫_{-M}^Muleft(frac l{sqrt2},frac l{sqrt2}right)dlright)^2.$$



I have been thinking for a long time and surfing the internet for integral properties that might help without any luck. I am really confused because I don't see how an area times an area will give a volume.



The only thing I'm positive about using is the fact that the integration variable is mute.



Where do I start? What can I try? or What hints can you give me?
