(a) \( 3+\ln2 \)
(b) \( 1+2\ln2 \)
(c) \( \frac12+\ln2 \)
(d) \( \frac{31}4 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( 3+\ln2 \)
Explanation:
1. The square \( [-1, 1]^2 \) has area \( 4 \). The part with xy > \( 1/2 \) lies in quadrants I and III: \( 2\int_{1/2}^1(1 - \frac1{2x})dx = 1 - \ln2 \).
2. Area = \( 4 - (1 - \ln 2) = 3 + \ln 2 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Remove two corner regions bounded by the hyperbola.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(i) \( T_n\gt S_n \) for all n
(ii) \( T_n\gt \frac\pi4 \)
(iii) \( S_n\lt \frac\pi4 \)
(iv) \( \lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac\pi4 \)
Which of the statements are correct?
(a) (i), (iii) and (iv) only
(b) All of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)
(c) (ii), (iii) and (iv) only
(d) (i), (ii) and (iii) only
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) All of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)
Explanation:
1. \( T_n = \frac1n\sum_{r=1}^n\frac1{(r/n-1)^2+1} \) is a right-end Riemann sum of the increasing function \( 1/((x-1)^2+1) \) on \( [0, 1]; S_n \) is the left-end sum.
2. So \( S_n \lt \int_0^1 = \pi/4 \lt T_n, T_n - S_n = \frac1{2n} \gt 0 \), and both sums tend to \( \pi/4 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Examine each statement separately before choosing the combination.
2. Test doubtful statements with a specific function or number.
(a) \( \pi^2+e^{\pi/2} \)
(b) \( \frac{\pi^2}4+2 \)
(c) \( \frac{\pi^2}4-2 \)
(d) \( \pi^2-e^{\pi/2} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( \frac{\pi^2}4-2 \)
Explanation:
1. Pairing \( x \) and \( -x: \frac{1}{1+e^x} + \frac1{1+e^{-x}} = 1 \), so I = \( \int_0^{\pi/2}x^2\cos x\,dx \).
2. = \( [x^2\sin x + 2x\cos x - 2\sin x]_0^{\pi/2} = \frac{\pi^2}4 - 2 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Use the \( 1/(1+e^x) \) pairing trick.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 18 \)
(b) \( \frac{27}4 \)
(c) \( 36 \)
(d) \( 9 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( 9 \)
Explanation:
1. The line \( x = 2y + 3 \) meets \( y^2 = x \) where \( y^2 - 2y - 3 = 0 \), i.e. \( y = 3 (point (9, 3)) \).
2. Area = \( \int_0^3(2y + 3 - y^2)dy = 9 + 9 - 9 = 9 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Integrate with respect to \( y \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 1+x+\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \)
(b) \( 1+\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \)
(c) \( x+\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \)
(d) \( 1+x-\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( 1+x+\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \)
Explanation:
1. The area is \( \int_1^t(f(x) - x)dx \), so \( f(t) - t = \frac{d}{dt}\left[t + \sqrt{1+t^2}\right] = 1 + \frac{t}{\sqrt{1+t^2}} \).
2. \( f(x) = x + 1 + \frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}} \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Differentiate the area with respect to \( t \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 2\pi \)
(b) \( 0 \)
(c) \( 4 \)
(d) \( \pi \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( 0 \)
Explanation:
1. \( \sin(\sin x) \) is odd about \( x = \pi \), so its integral over \( [0, 2\pi] \) is \( 0 \).
2. \( \sin(\cos x) \) changes sign under \( x \to \pi - x (cos x \) becomes -cos \( x) \), so \( \int_0^\pi = 0 \), and similarly on \( [\pi, 2\pi] \).
3. The total is \( 0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Test the symmetry \( x -\gt \) pi - \( x \) on \( [0, pi] \) and \( x -\gt 3pi - x \) on \( [pi, 2pi] \).
(a) \( \pi \)
(b) \( \frac{\pi}{2}\ln 2 \)
(c) \( \pi\ln 2 \)
(d) \( 2\pi\ln 2 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( \pi\ln 2 \)
Explanation:
1. Put \( x = \tan\theta: \int_0^{\pi/2}\ln(\tan\theta + \cot\theta)d\theta \).
2. \( \tan\theta + \cot\theta = \frac{2}{\sin2\theta} \), so the integral is \( \int_0^{\pi/2}(\ln2 - \ln\sin2\theta)d\theta \).
3. Since \( \int_0^{\pi/2}\ln\sin2\theta\,d\theta = -\frac\pi2\ln2 \), the value is \( \frac\pi2\ln2 + \frac\pi2\ln2 = \pi\ln2 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. The substitution \( x = tan(theta) \) absorbs the factor \( 1/(1+x^2) \).
(i) \( \lambda=\frac12 \)
(ii) \( \lambda=1 \)
(iii) \( I=\frac12\ln\frac52 \)
(iv) \( I=\frac14\ln\frac54 \)
Which of the statements are correct?
(a) Only (i)
(b) Only (iv)
(c) (i), (ii) and (iv) only
(d) (i) and (iv) only
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) (i) and (iv) only
Explanation:
1. For large \( x \) the integrand behaves like \( (\lambda - 1/2)/x \), so convergence needs \( \lambda = 1/2 \).
2. The antiderivative is \( \frac14\ln(x^2+1) - \frac12\ln(2x+1) = \frac14\ln\frac{x^2+1}{(2x+1)^2} \), which tends to \( \frac14\ln\frac14 \) at infinity and equals \( \frac14\ln\frac15 \) at \( 2 \).
3. I = \( \frac14\ln\frac14 - \frac14\ln\frac15 = \frac14\ln\frac54 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Examine each statement separately before choosing the combination.
2. Test doubtful statements with a specific function or number.
(i) \( \exists\,c\in(1,9):\ I=8\sqrt c\,f(c) \)
(ii) \( \exists\,p,q\in(1,3):\ I=2[p^2f(p^2)+q^2f(q^2)] \)
(iii) \( \exists\,\alpha\in(1,9):\ I=9\sqrt\alpha f(\alpha) \)
(iv) \( f\ge0\Rightarrow I\gt 0 \)
Which of the statements are correct?
(a) (i) and (ii) only
(b) Only (i)
(c) Only (ii)
(d) (i), (ii) and (iii) only
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) (i) and (ii) only
Explanation:
1. Mean value theorem for integrals applied to \( h(x) = \sqrt xf(x) \) on \( [1, 9] (length 8) \): I = \( 8h(c) \), so \( (i) \) holds. \( (iii) \) would need length \( 9 \), which is not the interval length.
2. With \( x = t^2 \), I = \( 2\int_1^3t^2f(t^2)dt = 2\cdot2\cdot(\text{average \) of \( }h(t) = t^2f(t^2)) \), and the average of \( h \) lies between two values \( h(p), h(q) (take p = q) \), so \( (ii) \) holds.
3. If \( f \ge 0 \) we only get I \( \ge 0 (f \) may be \( 0) \), so \( (iv) \) is false.
Teacher's Note:
1. Examine each statement separately before choosing the combination.
2. Test doubtful statements with a specific function or number.
(a) \( 3 \)
(b) \( 4 \)
(c) \( 6 \)
(d) \( 2 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( 4 \)
Explanation:
1. \( I_1 = \int(\sec^2x + 2\tan x)dx = 1 + \ln 2 \).
2. Partial fractions: \( \frac{1}{(1+x)^2(1+x^2)} = \frac{1}{2(1+x)} + \frac{1}{2(1+x)^2} - \frac{x}{2(1+x^2)} \), so \( I_2 = \frac12\ln2 + \frac14 - \frac14\ln2 = \frac{1+\ln2}{4} \).
3. \( I_1/I_2 = 4 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. The two integrals are related by a factor of \( 4 \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 1 \)
(b) \( 2 \)
(c) \( 0 \)
(d) \( -1 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( 0 \)
Explanation:
1. \( dy/dx = 4x^3\ln x^4 - 3x^2\ln x^3 = 16x^3\ln x - 9x^2\ln x \).
2. Both \( x^3\ln x \) and \( x^2\ln x \) tend to \( 0 \) as \( x \to 0^+ \), so the limit is \( 0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Powers of \( x \) beat the logarithm.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 2\sqrt2\,\pi \)
(b) \( \sqrt2\,\pi \)
(c) \( 4\pi \)
(d) \( 2\pi \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( 2\pi \)
Explanation:
1. Use \( \int_0^\pi xf(x)dx = (\pi/2)\int_0^\pi f(x)dx \) for \( f \) symmetric about \( \pi/2 \).
2. \( \int_0^\pi\sqrt{1+|\cos \) x|}dx = \( 2\int_0^{\pi/2}\sqrt2\cos(x/2)dx = 2\sqrt2\cdot\sqrt2 = 4 \).
3. I = \( (\pi/2)(4) = 2\pi \).
Teacher's Note:
1. The integrand \( f(x) = sqrt(1+|cos x|) \) satisfies \( f(pi - x) = f(x) \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( \frac32-e-\frac1{2e^2} \)
(b) \( -\frac12+\frac1e-\frac1{2e^2} \)
(c) \( \frac32-\frac1e-\frac1{2e^2} \)
(d) \( \frac12-e-\frac1{e^2} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( \frac32-e-\frac1{2e^2} \)
Explanation:
1. Let \( u = (x/e)^x \). Then \( u' = u\ln x \), so \( (x/e)^{2x}\ln x = \frac12(u^2)' \) and \( (e/x)^x\ln x = -(u^{-1})' \).
2. The integral is \( [\frac12u^2 + u^{-1}]_1^e = (\frac12 + 1) - (\frac1{2e^2} + e) = \frac32 - e - \frac1{2e^2} \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Recognise derivatives of \( u^2 \) and \( 1/u \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( \frac32 \)
(b) \( \frac12 \)
(c) \( \frac14 \)
(d) \( 1 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( \frac12 \)
Explanation:
1. The square \( |x| + |y| \le 1 \) has area \( 2 \). The strip \( |x| \lt 1/2 \) inside it has area \( \int_{-1/2}^{1/2}2(1 - |x|)dx = 3/2 \).
2. Required area = \( 2 - 3/2 = 1/2 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Subtract the central strip from the whole square.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( -2 \)
(b) \( -1 \)
(c) \( 2 \)
(d) \( 4 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( 2 \)
Explanation:
1. \( \frac1{1+\cos \) x} = \( \frac12\sec^2\frac x2 \), with antiderivative \( \tan\frac x2 \).
2. \( [\tan\frac x2]_{\pi/4}^{3\pi/4} = \tan\frac{3\pi}8 - \tan\frac\pi8 = (\sqrt2+1) - (\sqrt2-1) = 2 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Use \( 1 + cos x = 2cos^2(x/2) \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( \frac1{2n-1}-a_n \)
(b) \( \frac1{2n+1}+a_n \)
(c) \( \frac{2n}{2n+1}a_n \)
(d) \( \frac1{2n+1}-a_n \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( \frac1{2n+1}-a_n \)
Explanation:
1. \( a_{n+1} + a_n = \int_0^{\pi/4}\tan^{2n}x(\tan^2x + 1)dx = \int_0^{\pi/4}\tan^{2n}x\sec^2x\,dx = \frac1{2n+1} \).
2. So \( a_{n+1} = \frac1{2n+1} - a_n \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Combine consecutive terms using \( sec^2 = 1 + tan^2 \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( \frac{n}{n^2-1} \)
(b) \( \frac{n}{n^2+1} \)
(c) \( \frac{1}{n^2-1} \)
(d) \( \frac{1}{n-1} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( \frac{n}{n^2-1} \)
Explanation:
1. Put \( x = \sinh t \), so \( x + \sqrt{1+x^2} = e^t \) and \( dx = \cosh t\,dt \).
2. \( \int_0^\infty e^{-nt}\cosh t\,dt = \frac12\left(\frac1{n-1} + \frac1{n+1}\right) = \frac{n}{n^2-1} \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Hyperbolic substitution.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( -\frac{2}{21} \)
(b) \( -\frac{10}{21} \)
(c) \( -\frac{22}{21} \)
(d) \( \frac{10}{21} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( -\frac{10}{21} \)
Explanation:
1. The integrand simplifies to \( x^{1/6} - x^{-1/4} \).
2. Integrating: \( (6/7)x^{7/6} - (4/3)x^{3/4} \) from \( 0 \) to \( 1 \) gives \( 6/7 - 4/3 \).
3. \( 6/7 - 4/3 = (18 - 28)/21 = -10/21 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Write every root as a power of \( x \) before integrating.
2. Both terms are integrable at \( 0 \) because the exponents are greater than \( -1 \).
(i) f(a, 3) is least when a = 1
(ii) f(4, b) is an increasing function for b \( \ge \) 4
(iii) f(0, b) is least for b = 2
(iv) \( \min f(a,b)=-\frac43 \)
Which of the statements are correct?
(a) All of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)
(b) (i) and (ii) only
(c) (i), (ii) and (iv) only
(d) (i) and (iv) only
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) (i), (ii) and (iv) only
Explanation:
1. \( x^2 - 4x + 3 = (x-1)(x-3) \) is negative only between \( 1 \) and \( 3 \).
2. \( f(a, 3) \) decreases while the integrand is positive \( (a \lt 1) \) and increases for \( 1 \lt \) a < \( 3 \), so the least value is at a = \( 1 \). For \( b \ge 4 \) the integrand is positive, so \( f(4, b) \) increases.
3. \( f(0, b) \) is least at \( b = 3 (not 2) \). The overall minimum is \( \int_1^3 = -4/3 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Examine each statement separately before choosing the combination.
2. Test doubtful statements with a specific function or number.
(a) \( \frac32 \)
(b) \( 1 \)
(c) \( \frac14 \)
(d) \( \frac12 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( \frac12 \)
Explanation:
1. Write the integrand as \( \frac{3\sec^2\theta}{(1+\sqrt{\tan\theta})^5} \) and put \( u = \sqrt{\tan\theta}: \sec^2\theta\,d\theta = 2u\,du \).
2. I = \( \int_0^\infty\frac{6u}{(1+u)^5}du = 6B(2,3) = 6\cdot\frac{1!\,2!}{4!} = \frac12 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. With \( u = sqrt(tan) \) the integral becomes a beta integral.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(i) \( 2nI_{n+1}=2^{-n}+(2n-1)I_n \)
(ii) \( I_2=\frac\pi8+\frac14 \)
(iii) \( I_2=\frac\pi8-\frac14 \)
(iv) \( I_3=\frac\pi{16}-\frac5{48} \)
Which of the statements are correct?
(a) (i) and (ii) only
(b) (i), (ii) and (iv) only
(c) (i), (ii) and (iii) only
(d) Only (ii)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) (i) and (ii) only
Explanation:
1. Integrate \( I_n \) by parts: \( I_n = 2^{-n} + 2n(I_n - I_{n+1}) \), which rearranges to \( 2nI_{n+1} = 2^{-n} + (2n-1)I_n \).
2. With \( I_1 = \pi/4: 2I_2 = 1/2 + \pi/4 \), so \( I_2 = \pi/8 + 1/4 \). Then \( 4I_3 = 1/4 + 3I_2 \) gives \( I_3 = 3\pi/32 + 1/4 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Examine each statement separately before choosing the combination.
2. Test doubtful statements with a specific function or number.
(a) \( \frac{3e^x}{2(e-1)}+3x \)
(b) \( -\frac{3e^x}{2(e-1)}-3x \)
(c) \( -\frac{3e^x}{e-1}-x \)
(d) \( e^x-3x \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( -\frac{3e^x}{2(e-1)}-3x \)
Explanation:
1. Let A = \( \int_0^1f \) and \( B = \int_0^1yf(y)dy \). Then \( f(x) = (1 + B)e^x + \) Ax.
2. \( B = (1+B)\int_0^1ye^ydy + A/3 = (1+B) + A/3 \), so A = \( -3 \). Also A = \( (1+B)(e - 1) + A/2 \) gives \( 1 + B = -\frac{3}{2(e-1)} \).
3. \( f(x) = -\frac{3e^x}{2(e-1)} - 3x \).
Teacher's Note:
1. \( f \) has the form \( (constant)e^x + (constant)x \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( \frac{13}6 \)
(b) \( \frac{7}{2} \)
(c) \( \frac{23}6 \)
(d) \( \frac{25}6 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( \frac{23}6 \)
Explanation:
1. \( x^2 + 1 \le x + 1 \) for \( 0 \le x \le 1 \) and the opposite for \( x \ge 1 \).
2. Area = \( \int_0^1(x^2+1)dx + \int_1^2(x+1)dx = \frac43 + \frac52 = \frac{23}6 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. The smaller of the two curves bounds the region.
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( \pi \)
(b) \( -\frac\pi2 \)
(c) \( \frac\pi2 \)
(d) \( 0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( 0 \)
Explanation:
1. \( g'(a) = -\pi^2\cos(\pi a)/\sin^2(\pi a) \).
2. At a = \( 1/2, \cos(\pi/2) = 0 \), so \( g'(1/2) = 0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. The function pi \( / sin(pi a) \) has its minimum at a = \( 1/2 \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 1 \)
(b) \( \frac12 \)
(c) \( \frac32 \)
(d) \( 2 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( 1 \)
Explanation:
1. Mean value = \( (1/2)\ln((2 + c)/c) = (1/2)\ln 3 \).
2. \( (2 + c)/c = 3 \), so \( c = 1 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Set \( (2+c)/c = 3 \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(a) \( 4 \)
(b) \( \ln 4 \)
(c) \( \ln 2 \)
(d) \( \ln 8 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( \ln 4 \)
Explanation:
1. Put \( e^x - 1 = u^2 \): the integral is \( 2\tan^{-1}\sqrt{e^x-1} + \) const.
2. \( 2[\tan^{-1}\sqrt{e^x-1} - \pi/4] = \pi/6 \) gives \( \tan^{-1}\sqrt{e^x-1} = \pi/3 \).
3. \( e^x - 1 = 3 \), so \( x = \ln 4 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. The antiderivative is \( 2 tan^{-1} sqrt(e^x - 1) \).
2. Verify the final value with a quick numerical or limiting check.
(i) \( J=\frac\pi4 \)
(ii) \( J=\frac\pi2 \)
(iii) \( J=\int_0^\infty\frac{dx}{(1+x)(1+x^2)} \)
(iv) J cannot be evaluated
Which of the statements are correct?
(a) Only (iii)
(b) (i), (ii) and (iii) only
(c) (i) and (iii) only
(d) (i), (iii) and (iv) only
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) (i) and (iii) only
Explanation:
1. Partial fractions: \( x/((1+x)(1+x^2)) = -1/(2(1+x)) + (1+x)/(2(1+x^2)) \); the logarithmic parts cancel at infinity, leaving \( \frac12\tan^{-1}x \), so \( J = \pi/4 \).
2. Putting \( x = 1/t \) turns \( J \) into \( \int_0^\infty dt/((1+t)(1+t^2)) \), so \( (iii) \) is true.
Teacher's Note:
1. Examine each statement separately before choosing the combination.
2. Test doubtful statements with a specific function or number.
