Question

Evaluate the following integrals as limit of sum:
$\int\limits^4_{1}\big(\text{x}^2-\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$

✓

Answer

$\int\limits^{\text{b}}_\text{a}\text{f(x)}\text{dx}=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{h}\Big[\text{f}(\text{a})+\text{f}(\text{a}+\text{h})+\text{f}(\text{a}+2\text{h})\ +\\ ....\ +\text{f}(\text{a}+(\text{n}-1)\text{h})\Big]$
Where, $\text{h}=\frac{\text{b}-\text{a}}{\text{n}}$
Here, $\text{a}=1,\text{ b}=4,\text{ f(x)}=\text{x}^2-\text{x},\text{ h}=\frac{4-1}{\text{n}}=\frac{3}{\text{n}}$
Therefore, $\text{I}=\int\limits^4_{1}\big(\text{x}^2-\text{x}\big)\text{dx}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{h}\big[\text{f}(1)+\text{f}(1+\text{h})+\ ....\ +\text{f}\big\{1+(\text{n}-1)\text{h}\big\}\big]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{h}\big[(1-1)+\big\{(1+\text{h}^2)-(1+\text{h})\big\}+\\\ ....\ +\big\{(1+(\text{n}-1)\text{h})^2-(1+(\text{n}-1)\text{h})\big\}\big]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{h}\big[\text{h}^2\big\{1^2+2^2+3^2\ ....\ +\$\text{n}-1)^2\big\}+1+2\text{h}\big\{1+2+\ ....+\$\text{n}-1)\big\}-\text{n}-\text{h}\big\{1+2+\ .....\ +(\text{n}-1)\big\}\big]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\text{h}\bigg[\text{h}^2\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-1)(2\text{n}-1)}{6}+\text{h}\frac{(\text{n}-1)}{2}\bigg]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{n}\rightarrow\infty}\frac{3}{\text{n}}\bigg[\frac{9(\text{n}-1)(2\text{n}-1)}{6\text{n}}+\frac{3(\text{n}-1)}{2}\bigg]$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{n}\rightarrow\infty}3\bigg[\frac{3}{2}\Big(1-\frac{1}{\text{n}}\Big)\Big(2-\frac{1}{\text{n}}\Big)+\frac{3}{2}\Big(1-\frac{1}{\text{n}}\Big)\bigg]$
$=9+\frac{9}{2}$
$=\frac{27}{3}$

A box manufacturer makes large and small boxes from a large piece of cardboard. The large boxes require 4 sq. metre per box while the small boxes require 3 sq. metre per box. The manufacturer is required to make at least three large boxes and at least twice as many small boxes as large boxes. If 60 sq. metre of cardboard is in stock, and if the profits on the large and small boxes are Rs. 3 and Rs. 2 per box, how many of each should be made in order to maximize the total profit?
