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. $$ \int_{0}^{27} \frac{5}{\sqrt[3]{x}} d x $$
Determine whether the improper integral diverges or converges. Evaluate the integral if it converges. $$ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} 2 x e^{-3 x^{2}} d x $$
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. $$ \int_{0}^{9} \frac{1}{\sqrt{9-x}} d x $$
Marginal Analysis In Exercises 27 and 28, use a program similar to the Simpson's Rule program on page 906 with \(n=4\) to approximate the change in revenue from the marginal revenue function \(d R / d x .\) In each case, assume that the number of units sold \(x\) increases from 14 to 16 . $$ \frac{d R}{d x}=5 \sqrt{8000-x^{3}} $$
Lumber Use The table shows the amounts of lumber used for residential upkeep and improvements (in billions of board-feet per year) for the years 1997 through \(2005 .\) (Source: U.S. Forest Service) \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline Year & 1997 & 1998 & 1999 & 2000 & 2001 \\ \hline Amount & \(15.1\) & \(14.7\) & \(15.1\) & \(16.4\) & \(17.0\) \\ \hline \end{tabular} \begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|} \hline Year & 2002 & 2003 & 2004 & 2005 \\ \hline Amount & \(17.8\) & \(18.3\) & \(20.0\) & \(20.6\) \\ \hline \end{tabular} (a) Use Simpson's Rule to estimate the average number of board-feet (in billions) used per year over the time period. (b) A model for the data is $$ L=6.613+0.93 t+2095.7 e^{-t}, \quad 7 \leq t \leq 15 $$ where \(L\) is the amount of lumber used and \(t\) is the year, with \(t=7\) corresponding to 1997 . Use integration to find the average number of board- feet (in billions) used per year over the time period. (c) Compare the results of parts (a) and (b).
