Determine whether the improper integral diverges or converges. Evaluate the integral if it converges. $$ \int_{1 / 2}^{\infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2 x-1}} d x $$
Use a program similar to the Simpson's Rule program on page 906 with \(n=6\) to approximate the indicated normal probability. The standard normal probability density function is \(f(x)=(1 / \sqrt{2 \pi}) e^{-x^{2} / 2}\). If \(x\) is chosen at random from a population with this density, then the probability that \(x\) lies in the interval \([a, b]\) is \(P(a \leq x \leq b)=\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\). $$ P(0 \leq x \leq 1.5) $$
Find the indefinite integral (a) using the integration table and (b) using the specified method. Integral \mathrm{Method } $$ \begin{aligned} &\int \frac{1}{x^{2}-75} d x\\\ &\text { Partial fractions } \end{aligned} $$
Use a program similar to the Simpson's Rule program on page 906 to approximate the integral. Use \(n=100\). $$ \int_{2}^{5} 10 x^{2} e^{-x} d x $$
Median Age The table shows the median ages of the U.S. resident population for the years 1997 through \(2005 .\) (Source: U.S. Census Bureau) \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline Year & 1997 & 1998 & 1999 & 2000 & 2001 \\ \hline Median age & \(34.7\) & \(34.9\) & \(35.2\) & \(35.3\) & \(35.6\) \\ \hline \end{tabular} \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|} \hline Year & 2002 & 2003 & 2004 & 2005 \\ \hline Median age & \(35.7\) & \(35.9\) & \(36.0\) & \(36.2\) \\ \hline \end{tabular} (a) Use Simpson's Rule to estimate the average age over the time period. (b) A model for the data is \(A=31.5+1.21 \sqrt{t}\), \(7 \leq t \leq 15\), where \(A\) is the median age and \(t\) is the year, with \(t=7\) corresponding to 1997 . Use integration to find the average age over the time period. (c) Compare the results of parts (a) and (b).
