Another Simpson's Rule formula is \(S(2 n)=\frac{2 M(n)+T(n)}{3},\) for \(n \geq 1 .\) Use this rule to estimate \(\int_{1}^{e} 1 / x d x\) using \(n=10\) subintervals.
$$\frac{-\sin ^{-1} a x}{x}-a \ln \left|\frac{1+\sqrt{1-(a x)^{2}}}{a x}\right|+C$$
Recall that the substitution \(x=a \sec \theta\) implies either \(x \geq a\) (in which case \(0 \leq \theta<\pi / 2\) and \(\tan \theta \geq 0)\) or \(x \leq-a\) (in which case \(\pi / 2<\theta \leq \pi\) and \(\tan \theta \leq 0\) ). Graph the function \(f(x)=\frac{1}{x \sqrt{x^{2}-36}}\) on its domain. Then find the area of the region \(R_{1}\) bounded by the curve and the \(x\) -axis on \([-12,-12 / \sqrt{3}]\) and the area of the region \(R_{2}\) bounded by the curve and the \(x\) -axis on \([12 / \sqrt{3}, 12] .\) Be sure your results are consistent with the graph.
Graph the integrands and then evaluate and compare the values of \(\int_{0}^{\infty} x e^{-x^{2}} d x\) and \(\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{2} e^{-x^{2}} d x\).
A differential equation of the form \(y^{\prime}(t)=F(y)\) is said to be autonomous (the function \(F\) depends only on \(y\) ). The constant function \(y=y_{0}\) is an equilibrium solution of the equation provided \(F\left(y_{0}\right)=0\) (because then \(y^{\prime}(t)=0,\) and the solution remains constant for all \(t\) ). Note that equilibrium solutions correspond to horizontal line segments in the direction field. Note also that for autonomous equations, the direction field is independent of \(t\). Consider the following equations. a. Find all equilibrium solutions. b. Sketch the direction field on either side of the equilibrium solutions for \(t \geq 0\). c. Sketch the solution curve that corresponds to the initial condition \(y(0)=1\). $$y^{\prime}(t)=y(y-3)$$
