integral problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{\sqrt{x}} \ln (t+3^t)\] find g'(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What variable is this being integrated with respect to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its probably t.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Want to make sure anyway

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry dt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you probably need to do integration by parts and use the fundamental theorem of calculus

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can i use the u substitution rule?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't think so. if you have u = t+3^t, then you have du/dt = 1+3^t(log(3). you keep getting 3^t back.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, substitute u = ln(t + 3^t)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what would my du be?? and the dx?

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

\[\Large g(x)=\int_0^{\sqrt x} \ln(t+3^t)\mathrm dt\] use the fundamental theorem of calculus and the chain rule for differentiation if \(\Large \displaystyle g(x)=\int_a^{u(x)} f(t) \mathrm dt\) then \(\Large \displaystyle g'(x) = f(u(x))\cdot u'(x)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok that makes sense

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

as to the problem, \[\Large g'(x)=\ln(\sqrt x +3^{\sqrt x}) \frac{d(\sqrt x)}{dx}\]
