integrate x^2(2x - 1)

This can be achieved through integrating by parts. The term we wish to differentiate and ultimately eliminate here is the x^2 term. There by applying the formula twice the integration can be accomplished.  I can most easily demonstrate this through use of a white board in the interview.

The rate of growth of a population of micro-organisms is modelled by the equation: dP/dt = 3t^2+6t, where P is the population size at time t hours. Given that P=100 at t=1, find P in terms of t.


The air pressure in the cabin of a passenger plane is modelled by the equation: P(x) = 3cos(x/2) - sin(x/2) where x is the altitude. Express P(x) in the form Rcos(x/2 +z) where z is acute and in degrees and then find the maximum pressure


How and when do you use integration by parts?


write 2(sin^2(x)- cos^2(x)) + 6 sin(x) cos(x) in terms of cos(2x) and sin(2x)
