Evaluate the following integral, the integral from zero to two of
four to the negative Theta, D Theta.
So the first thing we have to do is realize that this is a
property.
To start finding the integral, we're going to look at the
derivative.
So if we have DDX of A to the X, that's going to equal DDX of E
to the lane, A to the X using the power rule bring down the X.
So now we know that the derivative of E to something is
E to that something times the derivative of the exponent.
So we get E XL NA times LNA.
If we take the X back up into the exponent using the power
rule again, E to the LNA to the X times LNA and then the E to
the Ln cancels.
So we get a XL NA.
Now using the chain rule, we know that we could take the
derivative of A to EU where U is a different function.
So DDX of A to EU is just going to be A to the ULNADUDX.
Thus the integral of A to the UDU is going to be A to EU
divided by LNA plus C So when we look at this problem now, we're
just really using that formula zero to two, four to the
negative Theta, D Theta.
Let U equal negative Theta DU equals negative D Theta.
Changing our bounds, U of 0 is 0 and U of two is -2, so we're
going to go zero to -2 of -4 udu.
When we evaluate that by the formula we just talked about,
it's going to be -4 / U or -4 U divided by lane 4 from zero to
-2, sticking in the -2 for our U and then sticking in the 0.
Simplifying, we're going to get 15 / 16 Ln 4.
Now there are a couple different formats that could look.
You could change the LN4 if you wanted to Ln 2 ^2.
So you could have 1530 seconds LN2, but fifteen 16th LN4 works.
