Evaluate the integral. 3 f(x) dx −4 where f(x) = 3 if −4 ≤ x ≤ 0 4 − x2 if 0 < x ≤ 3

Sagot :

It looks like you have

[tex]f(x) = \begin{cases} 3 & \text{if } -4 \le x \le 0 \\ 4 - x^2 & \text{if } 0 < x \le 3\end{cases}[/tex]

and the integral you want to compute is

[tex]\displaystyle \int_{-4}^3 f(x) \, dx[/tex]

Split the integral up at [tex]x=0[/tex]. Then

[tex]\displaystyle \int_{-4}^3 f(x) \, dx = \int_{-4}^0 f(x)\,dx + \int_0^3 f(x)\,dx \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ = \int_{-4}^0 3 \, dx + \int_0^3 (4 - x^2) \, dx \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ = 3(0 - (-4)) + \left(4\cdot3 - \frac{3^3}3\right) = \boxed{15}[/tex]

After evaluating the integral we get 15

Integral is the representation of the area of a region under a curve. We approximate the actual value of an integral by drawing rectangles. A definite integral of a function can be represented as the area of the region bounded by its graph of the given function between two points in the line.

Given,

f(x) = 3         if   - 4 ≤ x ≤ 0

f(x) = 4 - [tex]x^{2}[/tex]  if   0 < x ≤ 3

Then,

[tex]f(x) = \left \{ {{3} \atop {4-x^{2} }}[/tex]

We need to solve the integral -[tex]\int\limits^3_4 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Elaborate the integral with x = 0

                                             -[tex]\int\limits^3_4 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

                                          = -[tex]\int\limits^0_4 {f(x)} \, dx + \int\limits^3_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

                                          = -[tex]\int\limits^0_4 {3} \, dx + \int\limits^3_0 {4-x^{2} } \, dx[/tex]

                                          = 3 ( 0 - (-4)) + (4.3 - [tex]\frac{3^{3} }{3}[/tex])

                                          = 15
