_______________


Make it more general, and see what happens when you try to reduce the exponent of  x  in the following integral:

\mathsf{\mathtt{I}_0=\displaystyle\int\! x^k\cdot e^x\,dx\qquad\qquad (k\ge 1,~~k\in\mathbb{N})}


Now, integrate it by parts:

\begin{array}{lcl}
\mathsf{u=x^k}&\quad\Rightarrow\quad&\mathsf{du=k\cdot x^{k-1}\,dx}\\\\
\mathsf{dv=e^x\,dx}&\quad\Leftarrow\quad&\mathsf{v=e^x}
\end{array}


\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! u\,dv=u\cdot v-\int\! v\,du}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! x^k\cdot e^x\,dx=x^k\cdot e^x-\int\! e^x\cdot k\cdot x^{k-1}\,dx}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! x^k\cdot e^x\,dx=x^k\cdot e^x-k\int\! x^{k-1}\cdot e^x\,dx}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! x^k\cdot e^x\,dx=x^k\cdot e^x-k\cdot \mathtt{I}_1}

where \mathsf{\mathtt{I}_1=\displaystyle\int\! x^{k-1}\cdot e^x\,dx.}


So after one iteration, the exponent of  x  was decreased by one unit.

The question is:  after how many iterations will the exponent of  x  equals zero?

     After exactly  k  iterations, of course.

Therefore, for  k = 7, you have to apply integration by parts  7  times, to get rid of that polynomial factor. Then, there will be one last integral left to evaluate:

\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! e^x\,dx}

But this one doesn't need to be evaluated by parts. You can directly write the result:

\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\! e^x\,dx=e^x+C}


Shortly, for the integral

\mathsf{\mathtt{I}_0=\displaystyle\int\! x^7\cdot e^x\,dx}

you have to apply integration by parts  7  times (not  8  times).


I hope this helps. =)

Find the distance between (-5,-6) and (-3,-8 WILL GIVEBRANLIEST TO FIRST PERSON WHO AWNSES WITH EXPLANATION
Vlada [557]

Answer:

d = √8

d ≈ 2.82843

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Formula: d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Simply plug in our coordinates into the distance formula:

d = \sqrt{(-3 + 5)^2+(-8 + 6)^2}

d = \sqrt{(2)^2+(-2)^2}

d = \sqrt{4+4}

d = \sqrt{8}

To find the decimal, simply evaluate the square root:

√8 = 2.82843

Joseph wants to line his garden with a fence that cost $2.25 per foot. The length of the garden is 6 yards and the width is 2.5
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

$38.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2W + 2L

(where W is the width and L is the length)

Given:

  • width = 2.5 yd
  • length = 6 yd

⇒ perimeter = (2 x 2.5) + (2 x 6)

                     = 5 + 12

                     = 17 yd

Given:

  • cost of fence = $2.25 per foot

⇒ total cost = 17 x 2.25

                    = $38.25
