Example Question #234 : Definite Integrals

$\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx=3a+4b.$ What is $\int_{a}^{b}(f(x)+3)=?$

Possible Answers:

7ab

3a+4b+2

7b+6a

Correct answer:

Explanation:

For this problem, we need to first simplify the integral by splitting in two integrals. $\int_{a}^{b}(f(x)+3)dx=\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx+\int_{a}^{b}3dx.$

Now, the first integral was given in the problem statement. Therefore, we just need to add that to the evaluation of the second integral.

$\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx+\int_{a}^{b}3dx=3a+4b+\int_{a}^{b}3dx$

$\int_{a}^{b}3dx=3x=3(b)-3(a).$

Add the two parts together:

3a+4b+3b-3a=7b.

Example Question #235 : Definite Integrals

Evaluate this integral.

$\int_{0}^{\pi /2}cos^{3}(x)dx$

Possible Answers:

$-\frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{2}{3}$

$-\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

$\int_{0}^{\pi /2}cos^{3}(x)dx=\int_{0}^{\pi /2}cos^{2}(x)*cos(x)dx =\int_{0}^{\pi /2}(1-sin^2(x))cos(x)dx$

Now let u=sin(x) thus du=cos(x)dx .

Also notice sin(0)=0 and $sin(\pi/2)=1$ .

So we have

$\int_{0}^{1}(1-u^2)du=u-\frac{1}{3}u^3$

evaluated between 0 and 1.

We have

$1-\frac{1}{3}*1^3=\frac{2}{3}$

Example Question #231 : Definite Integrals

Determine the area bounded by f(x)=x and g(x)=x^2 between on $0\leq x\leq 1$ .

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{1}{6}$

$\frac{5}{6}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{6}$

Explanation:

First identify the higher and lower function.

The higher function: f(x)=x

The lower function: g(x)=x^2

Since $f(x)\geq g(x)$ between x=0 and x=1 we must integrate.

To integrate take the difference of the lower function from the higher function.

$\int_{0}^{1}(x-x^2)dx=\frac{1}{2}x^2-\frac{1}{3}x^3$

Evaluating between zero and one results in,

$\\=\left[\frac{1}{2}1^2-\frac{1}{3}1^3\right]-\left[\frac{1}{2}0^2-\frac{1}{3}0^3 \right ] \\\\=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}$

$=\frac{1}{6}$
