Integrate the following

Mathematics
1 answer:
enot [183]3 years ago

I suppose you mean to have the entire numerator under the square root?

\displaystyle\int_2^4\frac{\sqrt{x^2-4}}{x^2}\,\mathrm dx

We can use a trigonometric substitution to start:

x=2\sec t\implies\mathrm dx=2\sec t\tan t\,\mathrm dt

Then for x=2, t=\sec^{-1}1=0; for x=4, t=\sec^{-1}2=\frac\pi3. So the integral is equivalent to

\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/3}\frac{\sqrt{(2\sec t)^2-4}}{(2\sec t)^2}(2\sec t\tan t)\,\mathrm dt=\int_0^{\pi/3}\frac{\tan^2t}{\sec t}\,\mathrm dt

We can write

\dfrac{\tan^2t}{\sec t}=\dfrac{\frac{\sin^2t}{\cos^2t}}{\frac1{\cos t}}=\dfrac{\sin^2t}{\cos t}=\dfrac{1-\cos^2t}{\cos t}=\sec t-\cos t

so the integral becomes

\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/3}(\sec t-\cos t)\,\mathrm dt=\boxed{\ln(2+\sqrt3)-\frac{\sqrt3}2}

Ber [7]

The expression that can be used to represent the list price of the smartphone is 5179.99 * (1- 25%) and the value is 3884.9925

<h3>What expression can be used to represent the list price of the smartphone? </h3>

The given parameters are:

Discount = 25%

Sales price = 5179.99

The expression that can be used to represent the list price of the smartphone is

Expression = Sales price * (1- discount)

So, we have:

Expression = 5179.99 * (1- 25%)

Evaluate

Expression = 3884.9925

Hence, the expression that can be used to represent the list price of the smartphone is 5179.99 * (1- 25%) and the value is 3884.9925
