Consider the region satisfying the inequalities. Find the area of the region. $$ y \leq e^{-x}, y \geq 0, x \geq 0 $$
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 \(P(a \leq x \leq b)=\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\). $$ P(0 \leq x \leq 1) $$
Explain why the integral is improper and determine whether it diverges or converges. Evaluate the integral if it converses. $$ \int_{0}^{2} \frac{1}{(x-1)^{2 / 3}} d x $$
Arc Length A fleeing hare leaves its burrow \((0,0)\) and moves due north (up the \(y\) -axis). At the same time, a pursuing lynx leaves from 1 yard east of the burrow \((1,0)\) and always moves toward the fleeing hare (see figure). If the lynx's speed is twice that of the hare's, the equation of the lynx's path is \(y=\frac{1}{3}\left(x^{3 / 2}-3 x^{1 / 2}+2\right)\) Find the distance traveled by the lynx by integrating over the interval \([0,1]\).
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. $$ \int_{3} \frac{1}{x^{2} \sqrt{x^{2}-9}} d x $$
