Example Question #144 : How To Find Integral Expressions

Evaluate: 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the integral, first find the antiderivative, then evaluate at the limits of integration to find the definite integral.

Here, the antiderivative is .

Example Question #147 : Equations

Integrate:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

When integrating this expression, tackle each term separately. For , leave the  out and just integrate the  term. Raise the exponent by  and then put that result on the denominator: . Do that for each term.  becomes and  becomes . Put those all together and add a "C" at the end because it is an indefinite integral: .

Example Question #146 : Integral Expressions

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Before integrating this expression, I would chop it up into three separate terms and simplify since there is only one term on the denominator: . Then, integrate each term separately. When you integrate, you raise the exponent by  and then put that result on the denominator. Therefore, the resulting expression after integrating is: . Simplify and add a "C" at the end (it's an indefinite integral) and the answer is:

.

Example Question #147 : Integral Expressions

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, just focus on integrating the expression before evaluating it. When integrating, raise the exponent by one and then put that result on the denominator. Therefore, after integrating, you get: . Then, plug in , which yields  and then subtract the result of when you plug in .
