Math Homework Solution
7.5, #46. The integrand is an improper rational function . Long division gives

Completing the square gives x2 + 6x + 13 = (x +
3)2 + 22, so set w = x + 3 and dw = dx.
Then

so formula 25 applies with a = 2, b = 6, c = -5, giving

7.5, #50. The integrand is an improper rational function . Long division gives

Since t2 - 1 = (t - 1)(t + 1), formula 26 with a = 1, b = -1 gives

7.5, #51. Formula 24 with a = 2 gives

The left and right Riemann sums with n = 100 are
approximately 0.3939 and 0.3915. Since
the integrand is decreasing on the interval [0, 2], its value is between these
two estimates.
7.5, #53. Since x2 + 2x + 5 = (x + 1)2 + 22, formula 24 with a = 2 gives

The left and right Riemann sums with n = 100 are
approximately 0.1613 and 0.1605. Since
the integrand is decreasing on the interval [0, 1], its value is between these
two estimates .
7.5, #64. (a) The average voltage over a second is

(b) The average of V 2 over a second is

using the substitution u = 120πt and du = 120πdt. Thus
(c) If
= 110, then V0
=
= 155.56 volts.
7.6, #1.

| MID | 5.8465 | 5.8502 | 5.8502 |
is increasing and
concave-up on [1, 2] since

are positive on [1, 2]. (
and
for
)
So LEFT and MID
underestimate the integral, RIGHT and TRAP overestimate the
integral
7.6, #4.
| n | 20 | 100 | 1000 |
| LEFT | 3.0132 | 2.9948 | 2.9930 |
| RIGHT | 2.9711 | 2.9906 | 2.9925 |
| TRAP | 2.9922 | 2.9927 | 2.9927 |
| MID | 2.9930 | 2.9927 | 2.9927 |
is decreasing and
concave-down on [0,
] since
are negative on
(The
second derivative is messy, but its sign is easy to determine.
The numerator is always negative since square roots are non-negative; the
denominator
is positive for
) So LEFT and MID
overestimate the integral, RIGHT and
TRAP underestimate the integral.
