001 10.0 points Evaluate the integral
∫ (^) π/ 2
0
(2 sin(θ) + sin^3 (θ)) dθ.
correct
Explanation: Since
sin^2 (θ) = 1 − cos^2 (θ)
we see that
2 sin(θ) + sin^3 (θ) = sin(θ)(2 + sin^2 (θ))
= sin(θ)(2 + 1 − cos^2 (θ))
= sin(θ)(3 − cos^2 (θ)).
Thus
∫ (^) π/ 2
0
sin(θ)(3 − cos^2 (θ)) dθ
As the integral is now of the form
sin(θ) f (cos(θ)) , f (x) = 3 − x^2 ,
set x = cos(θ). Then
dx = − sin(θ) dθ ,
while θ = 0 =⇒ x = 1 ,
θ =

In this case

sin^3 (θ) + C
sin^3 (θ) + C
cos^3 (θ) + C
sin^3 (θ) + C
cos^3 (θ) + C correct
cos^3 (θ) + C
Explanation: After simplification, we see that
3 sin(θ) − 2 sin^3 (θ) = sin(θ)(3 − 2 sin^2 (θ)).
On the other hand,
sin^2 (θ) = 1 − cos^2 (θ).
Thus the integrand can be rewritten as
sin(θ)(3 − 2(1 − cos^2 (θ)))
= sin(θ)(1 + 2 cos^2 (θ)).
As this is now of the form sin(θ) f (cos(θ)), the subsitution x = cos(θ) is suggested. For then
dx = − sin(θ) dθ ,
in which case
I = −
(1 + 2x^2 ) dx = −

Consequently,
I = − cos(θ) −

with C an arbitrary constant.

003 10.0 points
Evaluate the integral
∫ (^) π/ 2
0
sin^3 x dx.
correct
Explanation: Since sin^2 x = 1 − cos^2 x ,
we see that
∫ (^) π/ 2
0
(1 − cos^2 x) sin x dx.
This suggests using the substitution u = cos x. For then du = − sin x dx, while
x = 0 =⇒ u = 1 ,
x =

In this case,

Determine the integral
∫ (^) π/ 2
0
(3 cos(θ) + cos^3 (θ)) dθ.
correct
Explanation: Since
cos^2 (θ) = 1 − sin^2 (θ) ,
the integrand can be rewritten as
3 cos(θ) + cos^3 (θ) = cos(θ)(3 + cos^2 (θ))
= cos(θ)(3 + (1 − sin^2 (θ))) = cos(θ)(4 − sin^2 (θ))
Thus
∫ (^) π/ 2
0
cos(θ)(4 − sin^2 (θ)) dθ.
As the integrand is now of the form
cos(θ) f (sin(θ)) , f (x) = 4 − x^2 ,
Since
sin^2 (x) cos^3 (x) = (sin^2 (x) cos^2 (x)) cos(x)
= sin^2 (x)(1 − sin^2 (x))cos(x)
= (sin^2 (x) − sin^4 (x))cos(x) ,
the integrand is of the form cos(x)f (sin(x)), suggesting use of the substitution u = sin(x). For then du = cos(x) dx ,
while x = 0 =⇒ u = 0
x =
π 2
=⇒ u = 1.
In this case

3(u^2 − u^4 ) du.

Explanation: The revenue function is given by
R(x) =

dx, R(0) = 0.
Thus
R(x) = 2x^2 + 3x − ln(3x + 8) + C
where the arbitrary constant C is determined by the condition R(0) = 0. Consequently,
R(x) = 2x^2 + 3x − ln

Explanation: The region bounded by the graphs of
f (x) =
5 ln x x
, y = 0, x = 2
is similar to the shaded region in
(not drawn to scale). Now the lower limit of integration is the x-intercept of the graph of f , i.e., the solution of f (x) = 0. But
