Q. Evaluate ∫05(7e−0.2x−4x)dx and express the answer in simplest form.Answer:
Break down into two integrals: Break down the integral into two separate integrals.We have the integral of a sum of two functions, which can be separated into the sum of two integrals:\int(\(7e^{−0.2x} - 4x)\,dx = \int 7e^{−0.2x}\,dx - \int 4x\,dx
Evaluate first integral: Evaluate the first integral ∫7e−0.2xdx. To integrate 7e−0.2x, we use the fact that the integral of eax is (1/a)eax, where a is a constant. So, ∫7e−0.2xdx=−7/0.2⋅e−0.2x=−35e−0.2x
Evaluate second integral: Evaluate the second integral ∫4xdx. The integral of 4x with respect to x is 24x2, which simplifies to 2x2. So, ∫4xdx=2x2
Combine results of integrals: Combine the results of the two integrals.The combined indefinite integral is:−35e(−0.2x)+2x2+C, where C is the constant of integration.
Evaluate definite integral: Evaluate the definite integral from 0 to 5. We need to calculate the value of the combined integral at the upper limit (x=5) and subtract the value at the lower limit (x=0). For x=5: −35e(−0.2⋅5)+2⋅52=−35e(−1)+50 For x=0: −35e(−0.2⋅0)+2⋅02=−35e(0)+0=−35 Now, subtract the value at x=0 from the value at x=5: 50
Simplify the result: Simplify the result.−35e−1+50+35=−e35+85This is the exact, simplified answer for the definite integral.
