Use integration by substitution to solve the integral below.

\(\int { 4{ e }^{ -7x }dx }\)

Solution:

Let u = -7x, then du = -7dx. In terms of dx, dx = \(-\frac { 1 }{ 7 } du\)

Rewrite integral in terms of u.

\(\int { 4{ e }^{ u }(-\frac { 1 }{ 7 }) du }\) Take out constants.

\(-\frac { 4 }{ 7 }\int { { e }^{ u } du }\) Integrate.

\(-\frac { 4 }{ 7 }({ e }^{ u } + C)\) Substitute back in terms of x.

\(-\frac { 4 }{ 7 }({ e }^{ -7x } + C)\) For some constant C.

Biologists are treating a pond contaminated with bacteria. The level of contamination is changing at a rate of \(\frac { dN }{ dt } =-\frac { 3150 }{ { t }^{ 4 } } -220\) bacteria per cubic centimeter per day, where t is the number of days since treatment began. Find a function N( t ) to estimate the level of contamination if the level after 1 day was 6530 bacteria per cubic centimeter.

Solution:

\(\int { -\frac { 3150 }{ { t }^{ 4 } } -220 }dt\) Split integral.

\(\int { -\frac { 3150 }{ { t }^{ 4 } }dt -\int { 220 }dt }\) Take out constants for both integrals

\(-3150\int { \frac { 1 }{ { t }^{ 4 }dt } -\int { 220 }dt }\) Integrate.

\(-3150(-\frac { 1 }{ 3{ t }^{ 3 } } )-220t\) Simplify.

\(\frac { 1050 }{ { t }^{ 3 } } -220t\) Write as function N(t).

\(N(t)=\frac { 1050 }{ { t }^{ 3 } } -220t+C\) For some constant C.

Solve for N(t) = 6530 where t = 1.

\(\frac { 1050 }{ { t }^{ 3 } } -220t+C=6530\)

\(\frac { 1050 }{ { 1 }^{ 3 } } -220(1)+C=6530\)

\(1050-220+C=6530\)

\(830+C=6530\)

\(C=5700\)

Function N(t)= \(\frac { 1050 }{ { t }^{ 3 } } -220t+5700\)

\(y={ x }^{ 2 }-2x-2,y=x+2\)

Enter your answer below.

Solution:

Find the intersection of the given equations

\({ x }^{ 2 }-2x-2=x+2\) Set equal to 0.

Subtract the two equations.

\(x+2-({ x }^{ 2 }-2x-2)\) Simplify.

\(x+2-{ x }^{ 2 }+2x+2\) Combine like terms.

\(-{ x }^{ 2 }+3x+4\)

Integrate this equation using intersection points as interval.

function_4 <- function(x)
{
  -x ^ 2 + 3 * x + 4
}
integrate(function_4, lower = -1, upper = 4)
## 20.83333 with absolute error < 2.3e-13

The area of the region bounded by the graphs of the given equations is 20.83333.

A beauty supply store expects to sell 110 flat irons during the next year. It costs $3.75 to store one flat iron for one year. There is a fixed cost of $8.25 for each order. Find the lot size and the number of orders per year that will minimize inventory costs.

Solution:

The lot size will be 110 / the number of orders per year. Let us have n = number of orders per year and lot size = l. Then l = 110 / n. Our cost function will look like \(8.25n\quad +\quad 3.75(\frac { l }{ 2 } )\) This function simplified is

\(8.25n + 3.75(\frac { l }{ 2 } )\) Plug in l.

\(8.25n + 3.75(\frac { \frac { 110 }{ n } }{ 2 } )\) Simplify fraction.

\(8.25n+(\frac { 110*3.75 }{ 2n } )\) Cost function is equal to.

\(8.25n-(\frac { 206.25 }{ n } )\)

Take the derivative of the cost function.

\(8.25n-(\frac { 206.25 }{ n } )\) derivative =

\(8.25-(\frac { 206.25 }{ { n }^{ 2 } } )\)

Solve for n by setting derivative of cost function equal to 0.

\(8.25-(\frac { 206.25 }{ { n }^{ 2 } } )=0\) Move 8.25 to other side.

\(-(\frac { 206.25 }{ { n }^{ 2 } } )=-8.25\) Cross multiply.

\(-8.25{ n }^{ 2 }=-206.25\) Divide -8.25.

\({ n }^{ 2 }=\frac { -206.25 }{ -8.25 }\) Simplify.

\({ n }^{ 2 }=25\) Solve for n.

\(n=5\)

Now that we know n we can solve for l.

\(l=\frac { 110 }{ n }\) Plug in 5 for n.

\(l=\frac { 110 }{ 5 }\) Simplify.

\(l=22\)

The lot size and the number of orders per year that will minimize inventory costs are a lot size of 22 and the number of orders per year equal to 5.

Use integration by parts to solve the integral below.

\(\int { ln(9x)·{ x }^{ 6 }dx }\)

Solution:

Let u = ln(9x), then du = \(\frac { 1 }{ x } dx\). Let v = \(\frac { 1 }{ 7 } { x }^{ 7 }\), then dv = \({ x }^{ 6 }\).

Using integration by parts, we get u * v - the integral of v * du.

\(\ln { (9x)(\frac { 1 }{ 7 } { x }^{ 7 })-\int { \frac { 1 }{ 7 } { x }^{ 7 }(\frac { 1 }{ x } dx) } }\) Simplify.

\(\frac { { x }^{ 7 }ln(9x) }{ 7 } - \int { \frac { { x }^{ 6 } }{ 7 } dx }\) Integrate.

\(\frac { { x }^{ 7 }ln(9x) }{ 7 } - (\frac { { x }^{ 7 } }{ 49 } +C)\) For some constant C.

Determine whether f ( x ) is a probability density function on the interval [1, e ^ 6] . If not, determine the value of the definite integral.

$f( x ) = $

Solution:

function_7 <- function(x)
{
  1 / (6 * x)
}
integrate(function_7, lower = 1, upper = exp(6))
## 1 with absolute error < 9.3e-05

f(x) is a probability density function on the interval [1, e ^ 6] since the integral of f(x) on the interval is equal to 1.
