integrate 2^(t^2)

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

\[\huge \int\limits 2^{t^2} dt?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah I need to start using that feature more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question given is \[F(x)=\int\limits_{0}^{3x}f(t)dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where f(t)=2^(t^2) calculate F(0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can see why F(0) = 0, but i cant actually get to that conclusion if that makes any sense

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

You have to use the fundamental theorem of calculus

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so F'(x)=f(x) yeah?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

You should start putting the images of the question, \[F(x) = \int\limits_{0}^{3x} f(t) dt \] we then have \[F(x) = \int\limits_{0}^{3x} 2^{t^2} dt = F(3x)-F(0)\]

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

This applies the chain rule

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{3x} \frac{ d }{ dx } f(t) dt\] pretty much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait am i supposed to differentiate it or integrate it?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Depends on what the question is asking yhou

OpenStudy (anonymous):

part a is just asking for the value of F(0)

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

I'm assuming it's asking for the derivative

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Use \[\int\limits_{0}^{3x} 2^{t^2}dt = F(3x)-F(0)\] then

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

So yeah \[F' = f\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so obviously if F(0) when plugged in will give 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this problem is just worded weird

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Your integral is not elementary though

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Why don't you post the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I will right now! I solved parts of it but now im on part c one sec let me type it

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

The other parts are most likely needed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(a) Calculate F(0). (b) Using n = 3 subintervals and left-hand endpoints, estimate the value of F(1). Begin by calculating ∆t and filling in the table of values below. t 0 1 2 3 f(t) 1 2 16 512 ∆t = ? (c) Calculate F(x) and find the local linearization of F(x) about x = 0. (d) Using part (c), estimate the value F(1) (this may not be a very good estimation).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a) 0 b) well i kinda already put the values in and delta t is 1 im stuck on c

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

How did you do the first one

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

They want \[F(0) = \int\limits_{0}^{3x} stuff dt\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

F(x)=f'(x) so d/dx of 2^(t^2) is (2^(x^2))(xlog(2)) so when x is zero then the whole thing is equal to zero
