It follows that:}\\&\int_a^d=\int_a^b+\int_b^c+\int_c^d\\&\text{Another principle of integrals is that if an integral value}\\&\text{is known, to take the same integral backwards will give a negative}\\&\text{of the original value:}\\&\int_a^b=-\int_b^a\\&\text{Knowing this, we can calculate }\int_{-3}^{45}f(x)dx\\&\int_{-3}^{45}f(x)dx=\int_{-3}^{9}f(x)dx+\int_{9}^{22}f(x)dx-\int_{37}^{22}f(x)dx-\int_{39}^{37}f(x)dx-\int_{42}^{39}f(x)dx+\int_{42}^{45}f(x)dx\\&\int_{-3}^{45}f(x)dx=(-67)+(74)-(-18)-(-67)-(68)+(86)\\&\int_{-3}^{45}f(x)dx=110\\&\end{align*}$
