intergals help. i am confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

with FTOC problems

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you understand the last answer i wrote? this one is similar, but you have to break up the integral in to two parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you show me the steps?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it was just \[\int_0^x t^5dt\] then the derivative would be \[x^5\] since the derivative of the integral is the "integrand"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it was \[\int_0^{x^4}t^5dx\] then you would have to use the chain rule to find the derivative because this is a composition of functions the derivative would be \[(x^4)^5\times 4x^3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in your case you have to break the integral in to two parts, \[\int_x^{x^4}t^5dt\] \[=\int _x^0t^5dt+\int _0^{x^4}t^5dt\] \[=-\int _0^xt^5dt+\int_0^{x^4}t^5dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then use the chain rule for each part

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for both of the sides?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

\[\large \int_{u(x)}^{v(x)}f(t)dt = F(v(x)) - F(u(x))\] where F(t) is the antiderivative of f(t) -------------------------------------- \[\large f(x) = \int_{u(x)}^{v(x)}f(t)dt\] \[\large f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left(\int_{u(x)}^{v(x)}f(t)dt\right)\] \[\large f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left(F(v(x)) - F(u(x))\right)\] \[\large f^{\prime}(x) = \frac{d}{dx}\left(F(v(x))\right) - \frac{d}{dx}\left(F(u(x))\right)\] \[\large f^{\prime}(x) = F^{\prime}(v(x))*v^{\prime}(x) - F^{\prime}(u(x))*u^{\prime}(x)\] You use the chain rule on the last line above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5t^4?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

oh and forgot that F ' (t) = f(t) so you can add in the line \[\large f^{\prime}(x) = f(v(x))*v^{\prime}(x) - f(u(x))*u^{\prime}(x)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have \[h(x)=\int_x^{x^2}t^5dt=\int_x^{x^2}f(t)dt\] \[h'(x)=f(x^2)\times{d\over dx}(x^2)-f(x)\times{d\over dx}(x)\] \[h'(x)=(x^2)^5\times(2x)-(x^5)\times(1)\] simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

h(x)'=x^10x(2x)-(x^5)*1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good can simplify a little bit more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o, 2x^6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@electrokid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no \[x^{10}(2x)-x^5=\mathbf{2x^{11}-x^5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ops, i didnt see - in front of x^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this isnt final answer is it?
