My answer was marked incorrect but I'm not sure what i did wrong ?
OpenStudy (yttrium):
What method did you used?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
First thing I see of the bad is the variable? Should it have been t?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
u substitution!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhh myy! I think that may be the reason why its incorrect?
OpenStudy (abb0t):
Yes, u-sub for the \(\sf \color{}{x^2+5}\)
OpenStudy (abb0t):
Err, i mean \(t\)*
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well, ok but first things first does any one know if my answer is completely wrong or may it just be that i put the incorrect variable?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think it's just the variable at first glance

Try sticking with the same variable. Your answer does look right tho..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You guys were right!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Didn't even notice -_-
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ONE MORE THING! if its possible can you guys help explain what i did wrong in this problem:

I worked it out a couple times and i kept getting the same answer as the one i typed but its incorrect apparently.
OpenStudy (abb0t):
\(\sf \color{}{cos(\frac{\pi}{3})}\) is your problem.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How so? :/
OpenStudy (yttrium):
should be negative cos
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes well as my integral i got
-19cosx+x

OpenStudy (abb0t):
\[\int\limits dy = 19\int\limits \sin(t)+1~dt \Rightarrow ?\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then i plugged in pi/3 & set whole equation equal to 1/2
OpenStudy (abb0t):
Yes, so you get 19\(\frac{1}{2}\) + \(\frac{\pi}{3}\)...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes! @abb0t i got that
OpenStudy (abb0t):
But you still have to solve for C.

I did and thats how i arrived to my answer -pi/3+10?
OpenStudy (abb0t):
\(\frac{1}{2}\)=\(\frac{19}{2}\)+\(\frac{\pi}{3}\)+C
OpenStudy (yttrium):
Ooops. Isn't it that the answer here should be and equation as well?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im not sure @Yttrium :/
@abb0t thats what i had written down!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well wait shouldn't it be -19/2?

OpenStudy (abb0t):
\(-\frac{19}{2}\)* sorry
OpenStudy (yttrium):
Yeah it should be.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes yes thought so :) @abb0t
OpenStudy (abb0t):
So, it should be \(\sf \color{}{\frac{30- \pi}{3}}\)=C
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hm did you just make it so it has a common denominator?

Yes. Now plug in your C into the final equation, and thats your answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so my final answer would be \[-19cosx+x+\frac{ 30-\pi }{ 3 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
??? @abb0t
OpenStudy (zarkon):
t
OpenStudy (abb0t):
Yes, in terms of t.
