![**Evaluate the Definite Integral by the Limit Definition**
\[
\int_{-6}^{6} x^3 \, dx
\]
**Step 1**
To find the definite integral \(\int_{-6}^{6} x^3 \, dx\) by the limit definition, divide the interval \([-6, 6]\) into \(n\) subintervals.
Then the width of each interval is
\[
\Delta x = \frac{b - a}{n}
\]
\[
= \frac{6 - (-6)}{n}
\]
\[
= \frac{12}{n}
\]
Note that \(\|\Delta\|\rightarrow 0\) as \(n \rightarrow \infty\).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fab6702de-5579-4c14-bacb-4d8e7e421acd%2F0697648d-3b4d-4191-b57a-58aa933a21bb%2Foataxsg_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)

To find the definite integral \(\int_{-6}^{6} x^3 \, dx\) by the limit definition, divide the interval \([-6, 6]\) into \(n\) subintervals.
Then the width of each interval is

\Delta x = \frac{b-a}{n}
\]
\[
= \frac{6 - (-6)}{n}
