Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image contains two integral problems. Let's break them down and solve them step by step.
1. First Problem:
This is an indefinite integral of the polynomial function . We solve it by integrating each term separately.
Solution:
Thus, the integral is: where is the constant of integration.
2. Second Problem:
This is a definite integral over the interval [1, 2]. We solve it by integrating each term separately and then evaluating the result from 1 to 2.
Solution:
Now, we evaluate the resulting function at the limits 2 and 1: [ \left[ 3(2)^3 - (2)^4 + (2)^2 \right] - \left[ 3(1)^3 - (1)^4 + (1)^2 \right] ] Simplifying: [ \left[ 3(8) - 16 + 4 \right] - \left[ 3(1) - 1 + 1 \right] ] [ \left[ 24 - 16 + 4 \right] - \left[ 3 - 1 + 1 \right] ] [ \left[ 12 \right] - \left[ 3 \right] = 9 ]
Thus, the value of the definite integral is .
