find the volume of a solid with cross-sectional area (1/4x^2+4x+5) lying between the planes x=0 and x=0.5

Question

anonymous · Answer

Integrate between 0 and 0.5

anonymous · Answer

shouldn't it be a double integral as it is a volume not an area

anonymous · Answer

Since this is adding up area, we'd only need single integral.The function represent the area

anonymous · Answer

oh ok

anonymous · Answer

if yu were eistein+newton+gallileo..shouldnt yu know this??

anonymous · Answer

lol

anonymous · Answer

finding the integral is a bit hard I guess. 4x^2+4x+5=4(x^2+x+5/4)=
=4(1 + (x+1/2)^2)

anonymous · Answer

now you can see that the it looks nearly like 1/(1+x^2)

anonymous · Answer

do you see the solution now or should I still help?
