Math Problem Statement

Calculate the double integral \(\iint_R 6xy e^{x^2 y} \, dA\) over the region \( R = [0,1] \times [0,2] \).

Solution

We are tasked with evaluating the double integral:

R6xyex2ydA\iint_R 6xy e^{x^2 y} \, dA

where the region R=[0,1]×[0,2]R = [0, 1] \times [0, 2].

Steps to solve:

  1. Set up the double integral: The double integral can be written as: 01(026xyex2ydy)dx\int_0^1 \left( \int_0^2 6xy e^{x^2 y} \, dy \right) dx

  2. Solve the inner integral: We first focus on the inner integral with respect to yy: 026xyex2ydy\int_0^2 6xy e^{x^2 y} \, dy We can use substitution to simplify this: Let u=x2yu = x^2 y, hence du=x2dydu = x^2 dy, or equivalently dy=dux2dy = \frac{du}{x^2}.

    Now, rewrite the limits for y=0y = 0 and y=2y = 2:

    • When y=0y = 0, u=0u = 0.
    • When y=2y = 2, u=2x2u = 2x^2.

    So the integral becomes: 6x02x2ueudu\frac{6}{x} \int_0^{2x^2} u e^u \, du The integral of ueuu e^u is (u1)eu(u - 1) e^u, so evaluating from 0 to 2x22x^2 gives: 6x[(2x21)e2x2(1)e0]\frac{6}{x} \left[ (2x^2 - 1) e^{2x^2} - (-1)e^0 \right] Simplifying: 6x[(2x21)e2x2+1]\frac{6}{x} \left[ (2x^2 - 1) e^{2x^2} + 1 \right]

  3. Solve the outer integral: Now we integrate with respect to xx from 0 to 1: 016x[(2x21)e2x2+1]dx\int_0^1 \frac{6}{x} \left[ (2x^2 - 1) e^{2x^2} + 1 \right] dx This integral is complex but can be handled using a combination of integration techniques (by parts and substitution) or calculated numerically.
