Solution:
| Step 1:
|
(a) Use a u-substitution with 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 = 3x^2 + 1.}
This means 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 = 6x\,dx}
, or 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 dx=du/6}
. After substitution 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 x e^{3x^2+1}\, dx &= \frac{1}{6} \int e^{u}\, du.}
|
| (b) We need to use the power rule to find that 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_2^5 4x - 5 \, dx = 2x^2 - 5x \Bigr|_2^5}
|
| Step 2:
|
(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{1}{6} \int e^{u}\, du = \frac{1}{6}e^u.}
|
| (b) We just need to evaluate at the endpoints to finish the problem:
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 \begin{array}{rcl}2x^2 - 5x \Bigr|_2^5 & = & 2(5^2) - 5(5) -(2(2)^2 - 5(2)\\ & = & 50 - 25 -(8 - 10)\\ & = & 25 +2\\ & = & 27 \end{array}}
|
| Step 3:
|
| (a) Now we need to substitute back into our original variables using our original substitution 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 = 3x^2 + 1}
|
| to find 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}{6}e^u = \frac{e^{3x^2 + 1}}{6}.}
|
| Step 4:
|
| Since this integral is an indefinite integral we have to remember to add a constant 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 C}
at the end.
|
| 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{e^{3x^2 + 1}}{6} + C.}
