Evaluate the following integrals: (i) \(\int_{-1}^{0} \frac{e^{\frac{1}{x}}}{x^{3}} d x\) (ii) \(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{1}{e^{x}+e^{-x}} d x\) (iii) \(\int_{3}^{5} \frac{x^{2} d x}{\sqrt{(x-3)(5-x)}}\) (iv) \(\int_{-1}^{1} \frac{d x}{(2-x) \sqrt{1-x^{2}}}\)
\(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{dx}\) may not equal \(\lim _{\mathrm{b} \rightarrow \infty} \int_{-\mathrm{b}}^{\mathrm{b}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} x\) Show that \(\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{2 \mathrm{xdx}}{\mathrm{x}^{2}+1}\) diverges and hence that \(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{2 x d x}{x^{2}+1}\) diverges. Then show that \(\lim _{b \rightarrow \infty} \int_{-b}^{b} \frac{2 x d x}{x^{2}+1}=0\)
Evaluate the following integrals : (i) \(\int_{1}^{\infty} \frac{d x}{x^{2}(x+1)}\) (ii) \(\int_{0}^{\infty} x^{3} e^{-x^{2}} d x\) (iii) \(\int_{0}^{\frac{1}{6}} \frac{\mathrm{dx}}{\mathrm{x} \ln ^{2} \mathrm{x}}\) (iv) \(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{d x}{x^{2}+2 x+2}\)
Given that f satisfies \(|\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{u})-\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{v})| \leq|\mathrm{u}-\mathrm{v}|\) for \(\mathrm{u}\) and \(v\) in \([a, b]\) then prove that (i) \(\mathrm{f}\) is continuous in \([\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]\) and (ii) \(\left|\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x-(b-a) f(a)\right| \leq \frac{(b-a)^{2}}{2}\).
One of the numbers \(\pi, \pi / 2,35 \pi / 128,1-\pi\) is the correct value of the integral \(\int_{0}^{\pi} \sin ^{8} x d x\). Use the graph of \(\mathrm{y}=\sin ^{8} \mathrm{x}\) and a logical process of elimination to find the correct value.
