#int_0^2f(x)dx=23#

Explanation:

#int_0^2f(x)dx=int_0^1f(x)dx+int_1^2f(x)dx#

  • #int_0^1f(x)dx=int_0^1 5x^9dx=5int_0^1(x^10/10)'dx=#

#5[x^10/10]_0^1=5/10[x^10]_0^1=1/2[x^10]_0^1=1/2(1-0)=1/2#

  • #int_1^2f(x)dx=int_1^2 6x^3dx=6int_1^2(x^4/4)'dx=#

#6/4int_1^2(x^4)'dx=3/2[x^4]_1^2=3/2(16-1)=3/2*15=45/2#

Hence, #int_0^2f(x)dx=1/2+45/2=46/2=23#
