Integration by parts formula: ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du$\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du$.
Core Logic
Let I(x) = ∫₀x t² (x - t) dt$I(x) = \int_{0}^{x} t^2 \sin(x - t) dt$. Use integration by parts.
Let u = t²$u = t^2$ and dv = (x - t) dt v = (x - t)$dv = \sin(x - t) dt \implies v = \cos(x - t)$.
I(x) = [t² (x - t)]₀x - ∫₀x 2t (x - t) dt$$I(x) = [t^2 \cos(x - t)]_{0}^{x} - \int_{0}^{x} 2t \cos(x - t) dt$$
I(x) = x² (0) - 0 - ∫₀x 2t (x - t) dt$$I(x) = x^2 \cos(0) - 0 - \int_{0}^{x} 2t \cos(x - t) dt$$
I(x) = x² - ∫₀x 2t (x - t) dt$$I(x) = x^2 - \int_{0}^{x} 2t \cos(x - t) dt$$
Step 1: Second Integration by Parts
Now integrate ∫₀x 2t (x - t) dt$\int_{0}^{x} 2t \cos(x - t) dt$ by parts again:
Let u = 2t$u = 2t$ and dv = (x - t) dt v = - (x - t)$dv = \cos(x - t) dt \implies v = -\sin(x - t)$.
= [2t(- (x - t))]₀x - ∫₀x 2(- (x - t)) dt$$= [2t(-\sin(x - t))]_{0}^{x} - \int_{0}^{x} 2(-\sin(x - t)) dt$$
= (-2x (0) - 0) + ∫₀x 2 (x - t) dt$$= (-2x\sin(0) - 0) + \int_{0}^{x} 2\sin(x - t) dt$$
= 0 + [2 (x - t)]₀x = 2 (0) - 2 (x) = 2 - 2 x$$= 0 + [2\cos(x - t)]_{0}^{x} = 2\cos(0) - 2\cos(x) = 2 - 2\cos x$$
Step 2: Equating and Solving
Substitute this back into the first equation:
I(x) = x² - (2 - 2 x) = x² + 2 x - 2$$I(x) = x^2 - (2 - 2\cos x) = x^2 + 2\cos x - 2$$
We are given I(x) = x²$I(x) = x^2$. Therefore:
x² + 2 x - 2 = x²$$x^2 + 2\cos x - 2 = x^2$$
2 x = 2 x = 1$$2\cos x = 2 \implies \cos x = 1$$
The solutions for x = 1$\cos x = 1$ are x = 2nπ$x = 2n\pi$, where n$n$ is an integer.
We need the roots in the interval [0, 100]$[0, 100]$.
0 ≤ 2nπ ≤ 100 0 ≤ n ≤ (100)/(2π) ≈ (100)/(6.28) ≈ 15.92$0 \leq 2n\pi \leq 100 \implies 0 \leq n \leq \frac{100}{2\pi} \approx \frac{100}{6.28} \approx 15.92$.
Since n$n$ must be an integer, n$n$ takes values 0, 1, 2, , 15$0, 1, 2, \dots, 15$.
The total number of solutions is 16$16$.

Convoluted-looking definite integrals containing a shift (x-t)$(x-t)$ often rapidly unpack through successive integration by parts where the polynomial variable diminishes until exhaustion.
