Solution
Let's solve each of the integrals given in the problem step-by-step.
Information Given
- is continuous on the interval .
- .
Integral Evaluations
(a)
Using the property of integrals, we can separate this integral:
From the given information, we know:
Now, calculate :
Therefore:
Answer for (a): 12
(b)
Similarly, separate the integral:
Since we do not have information about , we cannot directly calculate this term. This integral cannot be fully evaluated with the given information.
(c) (if is even)
For an even function , we know that:
Given , it follows:
Answer for (c): 12
(d) (if is odd)
For an odd function , we have:
Therefore:
Answer for (d): 0
Summary of Answers
- (a)
- (b) : Cannot be determined from the given information.
- (c) (if is even)
- (d) (if is odd)
Would you like further details on any specific part of these calculations, or do you have questions on the properties used?
Additional Questions
- How would the result change in (b) if more information about on was given?
- What if we knew was neither even nor odd? How would that affect (c) and (d)?
- Can we compute with the given information?
- How does the linearity property of integrals simplify problems like (a)?
- What are the implications of continuity for over the interval ?
Tip
For functions defined over symmetric intervals like , always check if they are even or odd. This can simplify calculations significantly.
