Math Problem Statement
Solution
The given problem asks to evaluate the definite integral:
Let's break down the expression and solve the integral:
-
First term:
- Using the power rule for integration: So,
-
Second term:
- Again, using the power rule for integration:
Now, combining the two results:
We evaluate at the upper and lower limits:
-
At :
-
At , both terms are zero.
Thus, the value of the integral is 144.
The correct answer is c. 144.
