76–83. Preliminary steps The following integrals require a preliminary step such as a change of variables before using the method of partial fractions. Evaluate these integrals.
82. ∫ [dx / (x√(1 + 2x))]

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the integral to solve: \(\int \frac{dx}{x \sqrt{1 + 2x}}\).
Recognize that the expression under the square root, \(1 + 2x\), suggests a substitution to simplify the radical. Let \(t = \sqrt{1 + 2x}\), so that \(t^2 = 1 + 2x\).
Differentiate both sides of \(t^2 = 1 + 2x\) with respect to \(x\) to find \(dx\) in terms of \(dt\): \(2t \frac{dt}{dx} = 2\), which implies \(\frac{dt}{dx} = \frac{1}{t}\), so \(dx = t \, dt\).
Express \(x\) in terms of \(t\) from \(t^2 = 1 + 2x\): \(x = \frac{t^2 - 1}{2}\). Substitute \(x\) and \(dx\) back into the integral to rewrite it entirely in terms of \(t\).
Simplify the integral after substitution and then proceed to use partial fractions or other integration techniques as appropriate to evaluate the integral.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Substitution Method (Change of Variables)

This technique involves replacing a complicated expression with a simpler variable to make integration easier. For example, setting u = 1 + 2x transforms the integral into a function of u, simplifying the square root and rational expressions. It is often the first step before applying other integration methods.

Partial Fraction Decomposition

Partial fractions break down a complex rational function into simpler fractions that are easier to integrate. After substitution, the integrand often becomes a rational function suitable for this method, allowing the integral to be expressed as a sum of simpler terms.

Integration of Rational Functions Involving Roots

Integrals containing roots like √(1 + 2x) often require manipulation to rewrite the integrand in a rational form. Understanding how to handle expressions with roots and convert them into integrable forms is essential, often combining substitution and partial fractions.

63. (Use of Tech) Normal distribution of heights

The heights of U.S. men are normally distributed with a mean of 69 in and a standard deviation of 3 in. This means that the fraction of men with a height between a and b (with a < b) inches is given by the integral

(1/(3√(2π))) ∫ₐᵇ e^(-((x-69)/3)²/2) dx.

What percentage of American men are between 66 and 72 inches tall? Use the method of your choice, and experiment with the number of subintervals until you obtain successive approximations that differ by less than 10⁻³.
