CorrectNot quite: 2

2.[2p]

Evaluate 02(3x2-2x)dx.

CorrectNot quite: 4

Part two of the theorem works with any antiderivative F. What guarantees that the choice does not matter?

Correct
The answer is: Two antiderivatives differ by a constant, which cancels in the subtraction $F(b) - F(a)$
The answer is: Two antiderivatives differ by a constant, which cancels in the subtraction $F(b) - F(a)$
The answer is: Two antiderivatives differ by a constant, which cancels in the subtraction $F(b) - F(a)$

If G(x)=1x3lntdt, find G(2), to two decimal places.

CorrectNot quite: 24.95

5.[3p]

Evaluating -11dx/x2 as [-1/x] gives -2, which is impossible for a positive integrand. Why?

Correct
The answer is: The integrand is unbounded at $x = 0$, inside the interval, so the theorem does not apply
The answer is: The integrand is unbounded at $x = 0$, inside the interval, so the theorem does not apply
The answer is: The integrand is unbounded at $x = 0$, inside the interval, so the theorem does not apply

Water enters a tank at r(t)=200+20t litres per minute. How many litres enter in the first 10 minutes?

CorrectNot quite: 3000

A particle has velocity v(t)=t2-4 m/s. What is its displacement over the first 3 seconds, in metres? Give the signed value.

CorrectNot quite: -3

8.[2p]

Every continuous function has an antiderivative, though it may not be expressible in elementary terms.

Correct
The answer is: True

9.[3p]

Match each integrand to its antiderivative.

  • xn with n-1

  • 1/x

  • cosx

  • 1/(1+x2)

  • arctanx

  • xn+1/(n+1)

  • ln|x|

  • sinx

Show the answer

xn with n-1: xn+1/(n+1) 1/x: ln|x| cosx: sinx 1/(1+x2): arctanx
