Review your summary of the integration by parts method, from problem 7-191. Then, with your team, evaluate the integrals below. 

  1. ∫xsin⁡(x)dx

PLAY IT AGAIN, SAM

Samantha tried to use integration by parts for the integral ∫x2exdx. She started with f=x2 and dg=exdx. Follow her work below.

f=x2
↓
df=2xdx

dg=exdx
↓
g=ex

Therefore,

∫x2exdx=x2ex−2∫xexdx

​​

  1. Samantha’s new integral appears nicer than the original. However, it still contains a product. What should Samantha do next?  

  2. Finish her work to evaluate ∫x2exdx.

  3. Evaluating ∫x2exdx required using the integration by parts process twice. How many times does the integration by parts process need to be used to evaluate ∫x5exdx? Explain your thinking.    

  4. Similarly, evaluate ∫x2sin⁡(x)dx.

REAPPEARING ACT

Elise is trying to evaluate ∫exsin⁡(x)dx using integration by parts and is getting frustrated. No matter what she assigns to f and dg, none of the terms seem to disappear. The new integral always contains ex and either sin⁡(x) or cos⁡(x). Her teammate, Edward, notices that when she uses the process twice, the new integral looks familiar. Edward thinks this might be a step in the right direction. Examine their work:

f(x)=ex    
↓
df=exdx

dg=sin⁡(x)dx
↓
g(x)=−cos⁡(x)

Therefore:
∫exsin⁡(x)dx=−excos⁡(x)+∫excos⁡(x)dx⏟

Using the process again: 

 ↗↙

f(x)=ex
↓
df=exdx

dg=cos⁡(x)dx
↓
g(x)=sin⁡(x)

∫exsin⁡(x)dx=−excos⁡(x)+exsin(x)−∫exsin⁡(x)dx⏞

Solve Elise’s equation for ∫exsin⁡(x)dx .

y=f(x) satisfies dydx=2x and its graph contains the point (−1,5). Homework Help ✎

  1. Use Euler’s Method to sketch an approximation of y=f(x) over −1≤x≤1. Use Δx=0.5.

  2. Use implicit integration to solve the differential equation.

  3. Compare your answers to parts (a) and (b). Determine the largest difference between the actual y-value and the Euler’s Method y-value for x=−1, −0.5, 0, 0.5, and 1. This largest difference estimates the error of Euler’s Method. If Δx=0.1 instead, do you think this error will be larger or smaller?
