Prove that ∫13(3x+4)dx=20in three different ways:

(a) algebraically, by calculating a limit of Riemann sums;

(b) geometrically, by recognizing the region in question as a trapezoid and calculating its area;

(c) with formulas, by using properties and formulas of definite integrals.

(a)∫13(3x+4)dx=limn→∞∑k=1n31+2kn+42n=limn→∞14n∑k=1n1+limn→∞12n2∑k=1nk=limn→∞14nn+limn→∞12n2nn+12=14+122=20

(b)∫13(3x+4)dx=312(32-12)+4(3-1)=32(8)+4(2)=20

(c)∫13(3x+4)dx=∫133xdx+∫134dx=31232-12+4(3-1)=12+8=20

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

The given integral is∫13(3x+4)dx=20.

02

Step 2. Part (a).

Take the interval 1,3.

∆x=3-1n=2nxk=a+k∆xxk=1+k2n

Use Riemann's sum.

localid="1648582598852" ∫13(3x+4)dx=limn→∞∑k=1nf(xk*)∆x=limn→∞∑k=1n31+2kn+42n=limn→∞∑k=1n7+6kn2n=limn→∞∑k=1n14n+limn→∞∑k=1n12kn2=limn→∞14n∑k=1n1+limn→∞12n2∑k=1nk=limn→∞14nn+limn→∞12n2nn+12=limn→∞14+limn→∞12n2+12n2=14+122=20

03

Step 2. Part (b).

The limit is the area covered by the trapezoid of widths a and b and height b-a.

a+b2(b-a)=12(b2-a2)

SO the area in the interval[1,3]is

localid="1648583331166" ∫13(3x+4)dx=312(32-12)+4(3-1)=32(8)+4(2)=12+8=20

So

04

Step 4. Part (c)

use properties and formulas of definite integrals.

∫13(3x+4)dx=∫133xdx+∫134dx=31232-12+4(3-1)=3(4)+4(2)=12+8=20
