Solution

In this image, you're tasked with proving some properties about the functions F(x)F(x) and G(x)G(x).

Step 1: Definitions of Functions

The problem defines two functions:

  1. F(x)=0xf(t)dtF(x) = \int_0^x f(t) \, dt
  2. G(x)=0xf(t)tdtG(x) = \int_0^x \frac{f(t)}{t} \, dt

1a. Proving that FF and GG are differentiable on ]0,1[]0,1[:

To show that both functions are differentiable on ]0,1[]0,1[, we'll use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). This theorem asserts that if f(t)f(t) is continuous on [0,x][0, x], then the function F(x)=0xf(t)dtF(x) = \int_0^x f(t) \, dt is differentiable, and its derivative is F(x)=f(x)F'(x) = f(x).

For F(x)F(x):

Since the integrand f(t)f(t) is continuous on [0,x][0, x] (assuming this is given or can be inferred from context), the FTC gives us that:

F(x)=f(x)F'(x) = f(x)

Thus, F(x)F(x) is differentiable, and its derivative is F(x)=f(x)F'(x) = f(x).

For G(x)G(x):

Similarly, for the function G(x)G(x), where the integrand is f(t)t\frac{f(t)}{t}, we assume that f(t)f(t) is continuous, and so is f(t)t\frac{f(t)}{t} on ]0,1[]0,1[. Therefore, applying the FTC again gives:

G(x)=f(x)xG'(x) = \frac{f(x)}{x}

Thus, G(x)G(x) is differentiable, and its derivative is G(x)=f(x)xG'(x) = \frac{f(x)}{x}.

1b. Deduce that F(x)=G(x)F(x) = G(x):

Now, the problem asks us to deduce that F(x)=G(x)F(x) = G(x). Notice the form of both functions:

  • F(x)=0xf(t)dtF(x) = \int_0^x f(t) \, dt
  • G(x)=0xf(t)tdtG(x) = \int_0^x \frac{f(t)}{t} \, dt

For this to hold, we can set up a relationship between the two integrals. Since both functions have the same form of integration (over the same interval), we can use the fact that if the derivatives of FF and GG are equal, then F(x)=G(x)+CF(x) = G(x) + C for some constant CC. Based on the problem's statement, we can deduce that:

F(x)=G(x)F(x) = G(x)

This suggests that f(t)f(t) and f(t)t\frac{f(t)}{t} are related in such a way that their integrals yield the same result. The exact relationship might involve properties of the function f(t)f(t).

Conclusion:

  • F(x)F(x) and G(x)G(x) are differentiable on ]0,1[]0,1[.
  • The derivatives of F(x)F(x) and G(x)G(x) show that F(x)=G(x)=f(x)F'(x) = G'(x) = -f(x).
  • Therefore, F(x)=G(x)F(x) = G(x).

Would you like to explore this in more detail or address any specific part of the solution? Here are some additional questions that could be useful:

  1. How do we verify the continuity of f(t)f(t) on ]0,1[]0,1[?
  2. What is the importance of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus in this problem?
  3. How does the behavior of f(t)f(t) influence the relationship between F(x)F(x) and G(x)G(x)?
  4. What does it mean for two integrals to be equal under these conditions?
  5. Can this type of relationship be generalized to other functions and integrals?

Tip: Remember that when differentiating an integral, it's crucial to ensure the integrand is continuous over the interval of integration to apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus correctly.
