calculus question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i start?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

derive every term

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large 4+\int _A^x\frac{g(t)}{t^2}dt=2\sqrt{2}\] for the integral use FTC 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i triedusing the fundamental theorem of calc, but it didnt work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int_a^bf(t)dt=F(b)-F(a)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how can i integrate \[ \frac{g(t)}{t^2}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dont intergrate for example \[\large\text{the derivative of }\int _0^xf(t)dt=f(x)-f(0)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but dont you have to integrate the function first, for FTC 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sry i meant ftc 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if its one, then it would \[ \frac{g(x)}{x^2}\] but still wont work..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it doesnt matter how complex the function to be integrated is,all we gotta do is jus write that function with A and x substituted....inside \[\large \int _A^x\frac{g(t)}{t^2}dt=\frac{g(x)}{x}-\frac{g(A)}{A^2}\] so since the derivative of 4 and \[2\sqrt{2}\] is 0 we have \[\frac{g(x)}{x}-\frac{g(A)}{A^2}=0\] \[g(x)=\frac{xg(A)}{A^2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh wait the other side is not \[2\sqrt{2}\]its \[2\sqrt{x}\] so derivative is \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we have \[\frac{g(x)}{x^2}-\frac{g(A)}{A^2}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\implies g(x)=\frac{x^2}{\sqrt{x}}+\frac{x^2g(A)}{A^2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how am i able to find the function of g and A?

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

the derivative of \[\int_A^x \frac{g(t)}{t^2}dt\] is \[\frac{g(x)}{x^2}\], not \[\frac{g(x)}{x^2} - \frac{g(A)}{A^2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so \[ g(x) = x^{3/2}\]?

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

that's right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how am i able to find \(A\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait does it mean \[g(t) = t^{3/2}\]?

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

now, you have to evaluate the definite integral

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

\[4+\int_A^x\frac{t^{3/2}}{t^2}dt=2\sqrt x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get \(A = 4\) is that right?

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

yup, that is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay! thank you! :D

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

thank you too.
