Question: `qQuery problem 7.8.6 integrate (x^2+y^2) with respect to y from x^2 to `sqrt(x)

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

x^2y+ y^3/3

plug in sqrt’x then x^2

(x^2sqrt’x+sqrt’x^3/3)-(x^4+x^6/3)

confidence rating:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a An antiderivative would be x^2 y + y^3 / 3.

Evaluating this antiderivative at endpoints y = x^2 and y = `sqrt(x) we get

[ x^2 * `sqrt(x) + (`sqrt(x) ) ^ 3 / 3 ] - [ x^2 * x^2 + (x^2)^3 / 3 ] =

x^(5/2) + x^(3/2) / 3 - ( x^4 + x^6 / 3) =

x^(5/2) + x^(3/2) / 3 - x^4 - x^6 / 3.

This can be simplified in various ways, but the most standard form is just decreasing powers of x:

- x^6/3 - x^4 + x^(5/2) + x^(3/2)/3.

Question: `qQuery problem 7.8.14 integrate `sqrt(1-x^2) from 0 to x wrt y then from 0 to 1 wrt x

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

sqrt’(1-x^2) dy dx

(sqrt’(1-x^2)y)

=x ‘sqrt(1-x^2)

confidence rating:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a The limits on the first integral are 0 and x.

The result of the first integral is then to be integrated with respect to x.

The solution:

** Since the function has no y dependence the whole expression is treated as a constant and an antiderivative with

respect to y is just `sqrt(1 - x^2) * y. The definite integral from 0 to x is therefore `sqrt(1 - x^2) * x - `sqrt(1 - x^2) * 0 =

x `sqrt(1-x^2).

Using a table you will find that an antiderivative with respect to x is arcsin(x)/2 + x `sqrt(1 - x^2) / 2. I don't think your

text has dealt with the arcsin function, but arcsin(1) = `pi/2 and arcsin(0) = 0. So substituting limits we get

arcsin(1)/2 + 1•`sqrt(1 - 1^2)/2 - [arcsin(0)/2 + 0•`sqrt(1 - 0^2)/2 ] = `pi/4

(all terms except the first give you zero).

Note that y = `sqrt(1-x^2) from x = -1 to 1 is the graph of a circle of radius 1. The integral from x = 0 to x = 1 gives a

quarter-circle of radius 1, which has area 1/4 * `pi r^2 = 1/4 * `pi * 1^1 = `pi/4, in agreement with the second integral.

**

Note that the region is just 1/4 of the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin. This circle has area pi r^2 = pi * 1^2 = pi,

and 1/4 of the circle has area pi/4, in agreement with the integral.

Question: `qQuery problem 7.8.32 sketch region and reverse order of integration for integral of 1 from 0 to 4-y^2, then

from -2 to 2.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

(4-y^2)-0= (4-y^2)

antiderivative: (4y-y^3/3)

8-8/3- (-8-(-8/3))

=16-16/3

=32/3

confidence rating:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a We first integrate 1 from 0 to 4 - y^2, with respect to x. An antiderivative of 1 with respect to x is x; substituting the

limits 0 and 4 - y^2 we get [ 4 - y^2 ] - 0, or just 4 - y^2.

Then integrating from y = -2 to 2, with respect to y, the antiderivative of 4 - y^2 is 4 y - y^3 / 3; substituting the limits -2

and 2 we get [ 4 * 2 - 2^3 / 3 ] - [ 4 * (-2) - (-2)^3 / 3 ] = 8 - 8/3 - [ -8 - (-8 / 3) ] = 16 - 16/3 = 32 /3.

Reversing the order of integration we integrate 1 from -`sqrt(x) to `sqrt(x), with respect to y. Anantiderivative of 1 with

respect to y is y; substituting the limits we get `sqrt(x) - (-`sqrt(x) ) = 2 `sqrt(x).

We next integrate with respect to x, from 0 to 4. Antiderivative of 2 `sqrt(x) with respect to x is 2 * [ 2/3 x^(3/2) ] = 4/3

x^(3/2). Evaluating between limits 0 and 4 we get [ 4/3 * 4^(3/2) ] - [4/3 * 0^(3/2) ] = 32/3.

The two integrals are equal, as must be the case since they both represent the area of the same region

Question: `qQuery problem 7.8.40 Area beneath curve 1/`sqrt(x-1) for 2 <= x <= 5

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

Inner

(1/sqrt’(x-1))-(0)= (1/sqrt’(x-1))

outer

(1/sqrt’(x-1))= 2sqrt’(x-1)

2sqrt’(5-1) - 2sqrt’(2-1)

confidence rating:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a The region goes from x = 2 to x = 5, and from the x axis to the curve y = 1 / `sqrt(x-1).

To find the area you integrate 1 over the region.

The integral would be from y = 0 to y = 1/`sqrt(x-1) with respect to y (this is the inside integral), then from x = 2 to x = 5

with respect to x (the outside integral).

Inside integral: antiderivative of 1 is y; substituting limits we have [1/`sqrt(x-1)] - 0 = 1 / `sqrt(x-1).

Outside integral is now of 1/`sqrt(x-1) with respect to x, from x = 2 to x = 5. Antiderivative is 2 `sqrt(x-1) which can be

found thru the u substitution u = x - 1. Evaluating at limits we have 2 `sqrt(5-1) - 2 `sqrt(2-1) = 2 `sqrt(4) - 2 `sqrt(1) =

2.

Question: `qQuery problem 7.8.44 area bounded by xy=9, y=x, y=0, x=9

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

inner

Y with boundaries from x to 0

x-0= X

antiderivative: x^2/2

use x=3 and x=0

3^2/2 - 0= 9/2

outer

Y with boundaries from 0 to 9/x

9/x - 0= 9/x

antiderivative: 9 ln|x|

9ln|9| - 9ln|3|

=9ln|3|

Now, the total area is the two answers added together.

(9/2) + 9ln|3|

Simplified= 9(ln|3|+1/2)

confidence rating:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a xy = 9 means y = 9/x; graph decreases at decreasing rate from asymptote at y axis toward asymptote at x axis.

y = x is straight line at 45 deg to x axis.

y = x intersects xy = 9 when x^2 = 9 or x = 3 (x^2 = 9 found by substituting y = x into xy = 9).

Graph is bounded by y = 0, which is the x axis. Also by x = 9. So the region lies above the x axis, below the y = x curve

from x = 0 to x = 3 ( where y = x is lower than y = 9 / x) and below the xy = 9 curve from x = 3 to x = 9.

So we first integrate 1 from x = 0 to x = 3 (outer integral) and from y = 0 to y = x (inner integral). Inner integral gives

antiderivative y; substituting limits we get x - 0 = x. Integrating x from x = 0 to x = 3 we get antiderivative x^2 / 2;

substituting limits yields 3^2 / 2 - 0^2 / 2 = 9/2 (which is the area of the triangle formed between x = 0 and x = 3).

Then we integrate 1 from x = 3 to x = 9 (outer integral) and from y = 0 to y = 9 / x (inner integral). Inner integral gives

antiderivative y; substituting limits we get 9/x - 0 = 9/x. Integrating x from x = 3 to x = 9 we get antiderivative 9 ln | x | ;

substituting limits yields 9 ln | 9 | - 9 ln | 3 | = 9 ln | 9/3 | = 9 ln | 3 |.

Total area is therefore 9 ln | 3 | + 9/2 = 9 ( ln | 3 | + 1/2 ).
