Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem asks to evaluate the iterated integral:
Step-by-Step Solution:
-
Inner integral (with respect to ):
For the inner integral, we are integrating with respect to first, while treating as a constant. The inner integral is:
Split this into two integrals:
-
For the first integral , since is a constant with respect to , the result is:
-
For the second integral , apply the power rule:
Use the difference of squares formula:
So the result of the second integral is:
-
-
Result of the inner integral:
The result of the inner integral is:
-
Outer integral (with respect to ):
Now integrate the result of the inner integral with respect to :
Split this into two integrals:
-
For the first integral , apply the power rule:
-
For the second integral , apply the power rule:
-
-
Final result:
Adding the two results together:
So, the value of the iterated integral is .
