Integral of Positive Measurable Function is Positive Homogeneous

Theorem
Let $\struct {X, \Sigma, \mu}$ be a measure space.

Let $f: X \to \R, f \in \MM_{\overline \R}^+$ be a positive measurable function.

Let $\lambda \in \R_{\ge 0}$ be a positive real number.

Then:


 * $\ds \int \lambda f \rd \mu = \lambda \int f \rd \mu$

where:


 * $\lambda f$ is the pointwise $\lambda$-multiple of $f$
 * The integral sign denotes $\mu$-integration

This can be summarized by saying that $\ds \int \cdot \rd \mu$ is positive homogeneous.
