Solve ∫ (from 1 to 2) of 4x^2+x

$$\int _ { 1 } ^ { 2 } 4 x ^ { 2 } + x$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{65}{6}\approx 10.833333333$$

Solution Steps

Evaluate the indefinite integral first.

$$\int 4x^{2}+x\mathrm{d}x$$

Integrate the sum term by term.

$$\int 4x^{2}\mathrm{d}x+\int x\mathrm{d}x$$

Factor out the constant in each of the terms.

$$4\int x^{2}\mathrm{d}x+\int x\mathrm{d}x$$

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 4 times \frac{x^{3}}{3}.

$$\frac{4x^{3}}{3}+\int x\mathrm{d}x$$

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}.

$$\frac{4x^{3}}{3}+\frac{x^{2}}{2}$$

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.

$$\frac{4}{3}\times 2^{3}+\frac{2^{2}}{2}-\left(\frac{4}{3}\times 1^{3}+\frac{1^{2}}{2}\right)$$

Simplify.

$$\frac{65}{6}$$
