Solve ∫ (from - 5 to 5) of (3x^2+10x) wrt x

$$\int _ { - 5 } ^ { 5 } ( 3 x ^ { 2 } + 10 x ) d x$$

Evaluate

$$250$$

Solution Steps

Evaluate the indefinite integral first.

$$\int 3x^{2}+10x\mathrm{d}x$$

Integrate the sum term by term.

$$\int 3x^{2}\mathrm{d}x+\int 10x\mathrm{d}x$$

Factor out the constant in each of the terms.

$$3\int x^{2}\mathrm{d}x+10\int x\mathrm{d}x$$

Since \int x^{k}\mathrm{d}x=\frac{x^{k+1}}{k+1} for k\neq -1, replace \int x^{2}\mathrm{d}x with \frac{x^{3}}{3}. Multiply 3 times \frac{x^{3}}{3}.

$$x^{3}+10\int x\mathrm{d}x$$

Since \int x^{k}\mathrm{d}x=\frac{x^{k+1}}{k+1} for k\neq -1, replace \int x\mathrm{d}x with \frac{x^{2}}{2}. Multiply 10 times \frac{x^{2}}{2}.

$$x^{3}+5x^{2}$$

The definite integral is the antiderivative of the expression evaluated at the upper limit of integration minus the antiderivative evaluated at the lower limit of integration.

$$5^{3}+5\times 5^{2}-\left(\left(-5\right)^{3}+5\left(-5\right)^{2}\right)$$

Simplify.

$$250$$
