Using substitution, integrate x(2 + x))^1/2 where u^2 = 2 + x

u 2 = 2 + xx = u 2 - 2dx/du = 2u ʃ x(2 + x)) 1/2 dx= ʃ xu dx= ʃ u(u 2 - 2) dx= ʃ 2u 2 (u 2 - 2) du= ʃ 2u 4 - 4u 2 du= [2/5u 5 - 4/3u 3 + C]= 2/5 (2 + x) 5/2 - 4/3 (2 + x) 3/2 + C

The volume, V, of water in a tank at time t seconds is given by V = 1/3*t^6 - 2*t^4 + 3*t^2, for t=>0. (i) Find dV/dt

The differential of a function is is rate of range of that function. Therefore to find dV/dt, we are finding the rate of change of the volume per unit time.Recall, in order to differentiate a term, e.g. x a ...
