Present Value Use a program similar to the Simpson's Rule program on page 454 with \(n=8\) to approximate the present value 454 the income \(c(t)\) over \(t_{1}\) years at the given annual interest rate \(r .\) Then use the integration capabilities of a graphing utility to approximate the present value. Compare the results. (Present value is defined in Section \(6.1 .)\) $$ c(t)=6000+200 \sqrt{t}, r=7 \%, t_{1}=4 $$
Determine whether the improper integral diverges or converges. Evaluate the integral if it converges, and check your results with the results obtained by using the integration capabilities of a graphing utility. $$ \int_{0}^{2} \frac{1}{(x-1)^{4 / 3}} d x $$
Determine whether the improper integral diverges or converges. Evaluate the integral if it converges. $$ \int_{-\infty}^{0} \frac{x}{x^{2}+1} d x $$
Use a spreadsheet to complete the table for the specified values of and to demonstrate that $$ \lim _{x \rightarrow \infty} x^{n} e^{-a x}=0, \quad a>0, n>0 $$ $$ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline x & {1} & {10} & {25} & {50} \\ \hline x^{n} e^{-a x} & {} & {} & {} & {} \\ \hline\end{array} $$ $$ a=\frac{1}{2}, n=2 $$
