Would someone take a look at my integration homework? TIA

OpenStudy (welshfella):

what have you done so far?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's on the second page

OpenStudy (amistre64):

hard to read your work can you explain your process for #1

OpenStudy (amistre64):

#1 and #2 are the same process so if you can do one you can do the other.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the antiderivative, subtract the upper interval from the lower, that's the answer

OpenStudy (amistre64):

good, and for the record, what was the antiderivative? of 1 and 2 ... and 3 for that matter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1x,2x,3x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x,3x,4x, sorry

OpenStudy (amistre64):

not what im asking ... the first 3 questions, what did you find as antiderivatives ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

each is listed in the first line of the solution

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and as i stated to start with, those are hard to read ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x + x^5

OpenStudy (amistre64):

good, next

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3/2)t^(4/3) + (5/9)t^(9/5)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

2 3/4 t^(4/3) + 5/9 t^(9/5) 3/2 t^(4/3) + 5/9 t^(9/5) agreed and #3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tanx

OpenStudy (amistre64):

tan(y) but yeah ok. then as long as you input the values right you did fine.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

now explain how you work #4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

using 'like' an inverse chain rule, I received help from someone here, but would love a replete explanation of what makes it so

OpenStudy (amistre64):

ok lets start with the fun thrm of calc \[F(x)=\int_{a}^{b}f(t)~dt=F(b)-F(a)\] now what if a and b are functions? \[F(x)=\int_{a(x)}^{b}f(x)(t)~dt=F(b(x))-F(a(x))\] do we agree so far?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

forgot to do b(x) as the top limit .....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, agreed

OpenStudy (amistre64):

thats got too many typos, let me redo it

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the (x) got attached to f instead of b in the coding \[F(x)=\int_{a(x)}^{b(x)}f(t)~dt=F(b(x))-F(a(x))\] thats better

OpenStudy (amistre64):

now the idea is to take the derivative of it all \[\frac d{dx}F(x)=\frac d{dx}\int_{a(x)}^{b(x)}f(t)~dt=\frac d{dx}F(b(x))-\frac d{dx}F(a(x))\] \[\frac d{dx}\int_{a(x)}^{b(x)}f(t)~dt=f(b(x))\frac {d}{dx}b(x)-f(a(x))\frac d{dx}a(x)\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

to clean it up .. \[g'(x)=f(b)b'-f(a)a'\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

tell me if this loses you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think I understand

OpenStudy (amistre64):

since f is already defined in the functions integration, and a and b are the limits g'(x) = (x^2)' x^2 sin(x^2) - 1' 1 sin(1) g'(x) = 2x x^2 sin(x^2) - 0 1 sin(1) g'(x) = 2x^3 sin(x^2)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if we see f(t) as the derivative it is ....f = F' \[\int_{a}^{b}F'(t)dt=F(b)-F(a)\] \[\frac d{dx}\int_{a}^{b}F'(t)dt=\frac d{dx}F(b)-\frac d{dx}F(a)\] \[\frac d{dx}\int_{a}^{b}F'(t)dt=\underbrace{F'(b)b'}_{chain~rule}-\underbrace{F'(a)a'}_{chain rule}\] notice that F' is already defined in the integral setup. its the function being integrated.
