Math Problem Statement

01 ⁣(x2+1)10(2x)dx\int_0^1\!\left(x^2+1\right)^{10}\left(2x\right)\,\mathrm{d}x

Solution

To solve the integral

01(x2+1)10(2x)dx,\int_0^1 \left(x^2 + 1\right)^{10} \cdot (2x) \, \mathrm{d}x,

we can use substitution. Let's proceed step-by-step.

Step 1: Substitution

Let u=x2+1.u = x^2 + 1. Then, the differential du\mathrm{d}u is found by differentiating uu with respect to xx: dudx=2xdu=2xdx.\frac{\mathrm{d}u}{\mathrm{d}x} = 2x \Rightarrow \mathrm{d}u = 2x \, \mathrm{d}x.

This matches the 2xdx2x \, \mathrm{d}x in the integrand, so we can substitute (x2+1)10(2x)dx\left(x^2 + 1\right)^{10} \cdot (2x) \, \mathrm{d}x with u10duu^{10} \, \mathrm{d}u.

Step 2: Change of Limits

When x=0x = 0: u=02+1=1.u = 0^2 + 1 = 1. When x=1x = 1: u=12+1=2.u = 1^2 + 1 = 2.

Step 3: Substitute and Integrate

The integral becomes 12u10du.\int_1^2 u^{10} \, \mathrm{d}u. Now, integrate u10u^{10}: u10du=u1111.\int u^{10} \, \mathrm{d}u = \frac{u^{11}}{11}.

Step 4: Apply Limits

Now substitute the limits u=1u = 1 and u=2u = 2: u111112=2111111111.\left. \frac{u^{11}}{11} \right|_1^2 = \frac{2^{11}}{11} - \frac{1^{11}}{11}.

Calculating this gives: =211111=2048111=204711.= \frac{2^{11} - 1}{11} = \frac{2048 - 1}{11} = \frac{2047}{11}.

Final Answer

01(x2+1)10(2x)dx=204711.\int_0^1 \left(x^2 + 1\right)^{10} \cdot (2x) \, \mathrm{d}x = \frac{2047}{11}.

Here are some related questions you might explore:

  1. How would the solution change if the power were different, say (x2+1)n\left(x^2 + 1\right)^n?
  2. What substitution would work if the integrand were (x3+1)10(3x2)\left(x^3 + 1\right)^{10}(3x^2)?
  3. How does changing the limits affect the integral's outcome?
  4. What would the integral look like if it extended from x=0x = 0 to x=2x = 2?
  5. How can substitution be applied to more complex integrands?

Tip: When you spot a term with f(x)f(x) and f(x)f'(x) in the integrand, substitution is often a powerful technique to simplify the problem.
