009B Sample Midterm 2, Problem 3

Evaluate

a) $\int _{1}^{2}{\bigg (}2t+{\frac {3}{t^{2}}}{\bigg )}{\bigg (}4t^{2}-{\frac {5}{t}}{\bigg )}~dt$

b) $\int _{0}^{2}(x^{3}+x){\sqrt {x^{4}+2x^{2}+4}}~dx$

Foundations:
Review $u$-substitution

Solution:

(a)

Step 1:
We multiply the product inside the integral to get
$\int _{1}^{2}{\bigg (}2t+{\frac {3}{t^{2}}}{\bigg )}{\bigg (}4t^{2}-{\frac {5}{t}}{\bigg )}~dt=\int _{1}^{2}{\bigg (}8t^{3}-10+12-{\frac {15}{t^{3}}}{\bigg )}~dt=\int _{1}^{2}(8t^{3}+2-15t^{-3})~dt$

Step 2:
We integrate to get

We now evaluate to get
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int_1^2\bigg(2t+\frac{3}{t^2}\bigg)\bigg(4t^2-\frac{5}{t}\bigg)~dt=2(2)^4+2(2)+\frac{15}{2(2)^2}-\bigg(2+2+\frac{15}{2}\bigg)=36+\frac{15}{8}-4-\frac{15}{2}=\frac{211}{8}}

(b)

Step 1:
We use Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u} -substitution. Let Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u=x^4+2x^2+4} . Then, Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle du=(4x^3+4x)dx} and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{du}{4}=(x^3+x)dx} . Also, we need to change the bounds of integration.
Plugging in our values into the equation Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u=x^4+2x^2+4} , we get Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u_1=0^4+2(0)^2+4=4} and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle u_2=2^4+2(2)^2+4=28} .
Therefore, the integral becomes Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}\int_4^{28}\sqrt{u}~du}

Step 2:
We now have:
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int_0^2 (x^3+x)\sqrt{x^4+2x^2+4}~dx=\frac{1}{4}\int_4^{28}\sqrt{u}~du=\left.\frac{1}{6}u^{\frac{3}{2}}\right|_4^{28}=\frac{1}{6}(28^{\frac{3}{2}}-4^{\frac{3}{2}})=\frac{1}{6}((\sqrt{28})^3-(\sqrt{4})^3)=\frac{1}{6}((2\sqrt{7})^3-2^3)}
So, we have
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int_0^2 (x^3+x)\sqrt{x^4+2x^2+4}~dx=\frac{28\sqrt{7}-4}{3}}

Final Answer:
(a) Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{211}{8}}
(b) Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{28\sqrt{7}-4}{3}}
