how do i figure this out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's making simple things hard :D \[\huge \int z^mdz=\frac{z^{m+1}}{m+1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You add one to the exponent and then divide the entire thing by that new exponent :D With that in mind \[\huge \int\limits_3^6 \left(z^{\frac95}+z^{\frac59}\right)dz\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Start with \[\huge z^{\frac95}\] remember... ADD 1 to the exponent DIVIDE the whole thing by that new exponent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm.... idk how i got 31.8? i evaluated the integral

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, ^ that thing above... add 1 to its exponent, and divide the whole thing by that new exponent like this \[\huge \frac{z^{\frac95+1}}{\frac95 +1}=\frac{5z^{\frac{14}{5}}}{14}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now, do the same to \[\huge z^{\frac 59}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 28.9667 to z5/9

@PeterPan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Don't do any evaluating yet, just get the antiderivative... by doing what I told you~ add 1 to the exponent, divide the whole thing by that new exponent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

27/5 would be the derivative of that wouldnt it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No... that's a constant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know.. i cant figure this out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do something similar to what I did. Just add 1 to the exponent, then divide the whole thing by that new exponent then simplify \[\huge z^{\frac95}\] \[\huge \frac{z^{\frac95+1}}{\frac95 +1}=\frac{5z^{\frac{14}{5}}}{14}\] do it for \[\huge z^{\frac59}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get 14 for that ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\huge \frac95 + 1\]
