_______________


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. =)

Diego deposited \$ 10,000$10,000 for 44 years at a rate of 6\%6% simple interest. ​Find the amount of interest Diego earned afte
timama [110]

Answer:

$2,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The correct years is 4 not 44

The Principal  = $10,000

Time period = 4 years

Rate = 6 % p.a.

Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time

Simple Interest = $10,000 * 6% * 44

Simple Interest = $2,400

So, the amount of interest Diego earned after four years is $2,400

Which octant contains the image of point A( 1, -3, 4) after a reflection about the xz - plane?
ANTONII [103]

Hi,

Concept: The given problem is based on 3 Dimensional Geometry.

Consider three axes in defined space be x, y & z in their positive directions then - x , -y & -z be their negative axes.

The coordinate of given point A(x1, y1, z1) = (1, -3, 4)

If we take the reflection of point A about xz - plane x and z coordinates will remain same and y-coordinate will give its reflection. It means the value of y-coordinate will be changed which will be +ve 3.

Hence, the reflection of A(1, -3, 4) will be A'(x2, y2,z2= (1, 3, 4).

dlinn [17]
Not sure what you’re trying to find but here’s the simplified version:

-4<=2t+5<11
-9<=2t<6
-9/2<=t<3
