Question
Evaluate the following integrals:
$\int\limits^{\pi}_2\log(1-\cos\text{x})\text{dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int\limits^{\pi}_2\log(1-\cos\text{x})\text{dx}$
$=\int\limits^{\pi}_2\Big(2\sin^2\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)\text{dx}$
$=\int\limits^{\pi}_2\log2\text{ dx}+\int\limits^{\pi}_2\log\sin\frac{\text{x}}{2}\text{ dx}$
Let $\text{t}=\frac{\text{x}}{2}$ in these cong integral then $\text{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\text{ dx}$
When $\text{x}\rightarrow0;\text{t}\rightarrow0$ and $\text{x}\rightarrow\pi;\text{t}\rightarrow\frac{\pi}{2}$
$\text{I}=\log2\big[\text{x}\big]^{\pi}_0+4\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{2}}_0\log\sin\text{t dt}$
$=\pi\log2+4\times\Big(-\frac{\pi}{2}\log2\Big)$ $\Bigg[\text{Where,}\int\limits^{\frac{\pi}{2}}_0\log\sin\text{t dt}=-\frac{\pi}{2}\log2\Bigg]$
$=-\pi\log2$

A merchant plans to sell two types of personal computers a desktop model and a portable model that will cost Rs. 25,000 and Rs. 40,000 respectively. He estimates that the total monthly demand of computers will not exceed 250 units. Determine the number of units of each type of computers which the merchant should stock to get maximum profit if he does not want to invest more than Rs. 70 lakhs and his profit on the desktop model is Rs. 4500 and on the portable model is Rs. 5000.

Amit's mathematics teacher has given him three very long lists of problems with the instruction to submit not more than 100 of them (correctly solved) for credit. The problem in the first set are worth 5 points each, those in the second set are worth 4 points each, and those in the third set are worth 6 points each. Amit knows from experience that he requires on the average 3 minutes to solve a 5 point problem, 2 minutes to solve a 4 point problem, and 4 minutes to solve a 6 point problem. Because he has other subjects to worry about, he can not afford to devote more than $3\frac{1}{2}$ hours altogether to his mathematics assignment. Moreover, the first two sets of problems involve numerical calculations and he knows that he cannot stand more than $2\frac{1}{2}$ hours work on this type of problem. Under these circumstances, how many problems in each of these categories shall he do in order to get maximum possible credit for his efforts? Formulate this as a LPP.
