Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula The Leibniz Integral Rule template allows direct differentiation of an integral with variable limits: fracddxleft( int_0^x g(t) dt right) = g(x) ### Core Logic Differentiate both sides of the given functional equation with respect to x using the product rule: fracddxleft[ 2(x+2)^2 f(x) - 3(x+2)^2 right] = fracddxleft[ 10int_0^x(t+2)f(t)dt right] 4(x+2)f(x) + 2(x+2)^2 f'(x) - 6(x+2) = 10(x+2)f(x) Since x geq 0, the factor (x+2) is strictly non-zero. Divide the entire equation by 2(x+2): 2f(x) + (x+2)f'(x) - 3 = 5f(x) (x+2)f'(x) - 3f(x) = 3 ### Step 1: Solve the First-Order Differential Equation Rearrange the expression into standard linear differential equation form where y = f(x): fracdydx - frac3x+2y = frac3x+2 Compute the Integrating Factor (I.F.): textI.F. = e^int -frac3x+2 dx = e^-3ln(x+2) = (x+2)^-3 Multiply through by the I.F. and integrate: y cdot (x+2)^-3 = int frac3x+2 cdot (x+2)^-3 dx = int 3(x+2)^-4 dx fracf(x)(x+2)^3 = 3 cdot frac(x+2)^-3-3 + C = -(x+2)^-3 + C f(x) = -1 + C(x+2)^3 ### Step 2: Apply the Boundary Condition Find the boundary condition by substituting x = 0 into the original integral equation equation: 2(0+2)^2 f(0) - 3(0+2)^2 = 10 int_0^0 (t+2)f(t) dt 8f(0) - 12 = 0 implies f(0) = frac128 = frac32 Substitute x = 0 into our general solution formula: f(0) = -1 + C(0+2)^3 implies frac32 = -1 + 8C frac52 = 8C implies C = frac516 Thus, the explicit function is: f(x) = -1 + frac516(x+2)^3 ### Step 3: Evaluate at target point x = 2 Substitute x = 2 into the final function equation: f(2) = -1 + frac516(2+2)^3 = -1 + frac516(64) f(2) = -1 + 5(4) = -1 + 20 = 19 ### Pattern Recognition When an equation contains a variable integral limit int_0^x, differentiating both sides using the Leibniz rule converts it into a standard differential equation. The initial value is found by setting x = 0 directly in the original expression. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Mathematics: Definite Integrals Class 12 Mathematics: Differential Equations

  • A. fracpisqrt3 (pi + 1)
  • B. fracpisqrt3 (pi + 2)
  • C. fracpi3sqrt3 (pi + 6)
  • D. fracpi2sqrt3 (pi + 4)

Solution

### Related Formula King's Property of Definite Integrals: int_a^b f(x) dx = int_a^b f(a + b - x) dx ### Core Logic Let the given integral be: I = int_0^pi frac(x + 3)sin x1 + 3cos^2x dx quad dots (1) Applying King's property (x to pi - x): I = int_0^pi frac(pi - x + 3)sin(pi - x)1 + 3cos^2(pi - x) dx I = int_0^pi frac(pi - x + 3)sin x1 + 3cos^2x dx quad dots (2) ### Step 1: Eliminate the x Variable Adding equations (1) and (2): 2I = int_0^pi frac[(x + 3) + (pi - x + 3)]sin x1 + 3cos^2x dx 2I = (pi + 6)int_0^pi fracsin x1 + 3cos^2x dx Using the symmetric property int_0^2a f(x)dx = 2int_0^a f(x)dx if f(2a-x)=f(x): 2I = 2(pi + 6)int_0^pi/2 fracsin x1 + 3cos^2x dx I = (pi + 6)int_0^pi/2 fracsin x1 + 3cos^2x dx ### Step 2: Solve Using Substitution Let t = sqrt3cos x. Then dt = -sqrt3sin x dx implies sin x dx = -fracdtsqrt3. Change in integration boundaries: - When x = 0 implies t = sqrt3 - When x = pi/2 implies t = 0 Substituting into the integral: I = (pi + 6) int_sqrt3^0 frac-dt/sqrt31 + t^2 = fracpi + 6sqrt3 int_0^sqrt3 fracdt1 + t^2 I = fracpi + 6sqrt3 left[ tan^-1t right]_0^sqrt3 = fracpi + 6sqrt3 left( tan^-1sqrt3 - 0 right) I = fracpi + 6sqrt3 cdot fracpi3 = fracpi3sqrt3(pi + 6) ### Pattern Recognition Whenever you encounter a linear x factor multiplying trigonometric components in a definite integral with symmetric limits like 0 to pi, executing King's property first is almost guaranteed to cleanly wipe out that variable element. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Mathematics: Definite Integrals

Solution

### Related Formula int_a^b f(x) \, dx = int_a^b f(a+b-x) \, dx ### Core Logic Perform variable substitution to match the arguments and limit bounds across both separate integral functions before invoking King's property. ### Step 1: Perform Base Transformation Substitution In I_1, let 2x = t implies 2dx = dt. Limits mapping: x = -1/2 implies t = -1; x = 1 implies t = 2. I_1 = frac12 int_-1^2 t f(t(1-t)) \, dt implies 2I_1 = int_-1^2 t f(t(1-t)) \, dt ### Step 2: Invoke Integral Mirror Properties Apply the identity using parameters (a+b-t) = (1-t): 2I_1 = int_-1^2 (1-t) f((1-t)(1-(1-t))) \, dt 2I_1 = int_-1^2 f(t(1-t)) \, dt - int_-1^2 t f(t(1-t)) \, dt ### Step 3: Final Matrix Matching Evaluation Notice component blocks align exactly with I_2 definition values: 2I_1 = I_2 - 2I_1 implies 4I_1 = I_2 fracI_2I_1 = 4 ### Pattern Recognition Symmetric transformations highlighting factor expressions like x(1-x) coupled with an external linear multiplier term x naturally simplify to half-weight area forms using reflection rules. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Mathematics: Definite Integrals

Solution

### Related Formula int x sin(pi x) \, dx = -fracxpicos(pi x) + fracsin(pi x)pi^2 ### Core Logic Track sign configurations across the target integration segments to drop absolute modulus walls effectively at clean quadrant intervals. ### Step 1: Break Apart the Modulus Domain For x in [-1, 1], product value elements x sin(pi x) ge 0. For x in [1, 3/2], values drop below zero: I = pi^2 left\ int_-1^1 x sin(pi x) \, dx - int_1^3/2 x sin(pi x) \, dx right\ ### Step 2: Integrate the Even Function Block Since x sin(pi x) is symmetric and even: int_-1^1 x sin(pi x) \, dx = 2 int_0^1 x sin(pi x) \, dx = 2 left[ -fracxpicos(pi x) + fracsin(pi x)pi^2 right]_0^1 = frac2pi ### Step 3: Subtract the Inverse Segment Evaluating boundary limits across the secondary phase track: int_1^3/2 x sin(pi x) \, dx = left[ -fracxpicos(pi x) + fracsin(pi x)pi^2 right]_1^3/2 = left( 0 - frac1pi^2 right) - left( frac1pi right) = -frac1pi^2 - frac1pi I = pi^2 left\ frac2pi - left(-frac1pi^2 - frac1piright) right\ = pi^2 left( frac3pi + frac1pi^2 right) = 3pi + 1 ### Pattern Recognition Products of two odd tracking metrics (like linear variable x matched with sinusoidal waves) yield overall even systems, enabling rapid evaluation over center-aligned domains. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Mathematics: Definite Integrals

Solution

### Related Formula King's property for definite integration: int_a^b f(x) dx = int_a^b f(a+b-x) dx ### Core Logic Apply the identity x to -x to the integral: I = int_-fracpi2^fracpi2 frac96x^2 cos^2 x1 + e^x dx = int_-fracpi2^fracpi2 frac96x^2 cos^2 x1 + e^-x dx ### Step 1: Adding both integral variations Adding the equations eliminates the exponential denominator term (1+e^x): 2I = int_-fracpi2^fracpi2 96x^2 cos^2 x cdot left[frac11+e^x + frace^x1+e^xright] dx I = 48 int_0^fracpi2 x^2 (1 + cos 2x) dx ### Step 2: Evaluating the integrated components Integrating by parts gives: I = pi (2pi^2 - 12) Matching coefficients with the template: alpha = 2 and \beta = -12. (alpha + beta)^2 = (2 - 12)^2 = (-10)^2 = 100 ### Pattern Recognition Exponential denominators like 1+e^x in symmetric integral intervals are prime candidates for simplification using King's property. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Maths: Definite Integrals
Q68 2025 Properties of Definite Integrals
Let f(x) + 2fleft(frac1xright) = x^2 + 5 and 2 mathrm g (mathrm x) - 3 mathrm g left(frac 12right) = mathrm x, mathrm x > 0. If alpha = int_ 1 ^ 2 f (x) d x, and beta = int_ 1 ^ 2 g (x) d x, then the value of 9alpha + beta is:
  • A. 1
  • B. 0
  • C. 10
  • D. 11

Solution

### Core Logic We have two functional equations to solve before integrating. Equation 1: f(x) + 2fleft(frac1xright) = x^2 + 5 Replace x with frac1x: fleft(frac1xright) + 2f(x) = frac1x^2 + 5 Multiplying this new equation by 2 and subtracting the original Equation 1 eliminates the fleft(frac1xright) term: 4f(x) + 2fleft(frac1xright) - left(f(x) + 2fleft(frac1xright)right) = 2left(frac1x^2 + 5right) - (x^2 + 5) 3f(x) = frac2x^2 - x^2 + 5 implies f(x) = frac23x^2 - fracx^23 + frac53 ### Step 1: Finding alpha Integrate f(x) from 1 to 2: alpha = int_1^2 left( frac23x^2 - fracx^23 + frac53 right) dx = left[ -frac23x - fracx^39 + frac5x3 right]_1^2 alpha = left( -frac13 - frac89 + frac103 right) - left( -frac23 - frac19 + frac53 right) = frac199 - frac89 = frac119 Thus, 9alpha = 11. ### Step 2: Solving for g(x) and finding beta We are given 2g(x) - 3gleft(frac12right) = x. Substitute x = frac12: 2gleft(frac12right) - 3gleft(frac12right) = frac12 implies -gleft(frac12right) = frac12 implies gleft(frac12right) = -frac12 Substitute this constant value back into the original equation: 2g(x) - 3left(-frac12right) = x implies 2g(x) + frac32 = x implies g(x) = fracx2 - frac34 Now find beta: beta = int_1^2 left( fracx2 - frac34 right) dx = left[ fracx^24 - frac3x4 right]_1^2 = left( 1 - frac32 right) - left( frac14 - frac34 right) = -frac12 - left(-frac12right) = 0 ### Step 3: Calculating 9alpha + beta Combining our values: 9alpha + beta = 11 + 0 = 11 ### Pattern Recognition Functional equations involving x to frac1x are easily solved by treating the swapped forms as a system of linear equations, allowing direct isolation of the underlying function. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 12 Mathematics: Definite Integrals Class 12 Mathematics: Functional Equations
