The Substitution Rule

Recall the Chain Rule:


(f(g(x)))′ = f′(g(x))g′(x)

What happens if we want to find ∫f′(g(x))g′(x)dx?

 

The Substitution Method: If F′(x) = f(x), then
∫f(u(x))u′ (x) dx = F(u(x)) + C.

Steps:

5.9 Approximate Integration
Recall: Riemann Sums

 

Midpoint Rule: The Nth midpoint approximation tois
MN = Δx(f(c1) + f(c2) +... + f(cN)
whereand cj is the midpoint of the jth interval [xj−1,xj ] or cj = a+(j−.5)Δx.

 

Trapezoidal Rule: The Nth trapezoidal approximation tois
TN =Δx(y0 + 2y1 +...+ 2yN−1 + yN)
where Δx =and yj = f(a + jΔx).

 

Simpson's Rule: Assume that N is even. LetΔx =and yj = f(a + jΔx). The Nth
approximation toby Simpson's Rule is
S
N =Δx[y0 + 4y1 + 2y2 +...+ 4yN−3 + 2yN−3 + 4yN−1 + yN]:

 

Example:
8. Use (a) the Trapezoidal Rule, (b) the Midpoint Rule, and (c) Simpson's Rule to approx-
imatesin(x2) dx, with n = 4.

 

Error Bounds:
How accurate are these estimates?
Error Bound for TN and MN: Let K2 be any number such that≤ K2 for all x∈[a,b]. Then
ET =Error(TN)≤, EN=Error(MN)≤
Error Bound for SN: Let K4 be the number such that≤K4 for all x∈[a,b]. Then
ES=Error(SN)≤

19. (a) Assume T10 = 1.719713 and S10 = 1.718283 forex dx. Calculate the correspond -
ing errors ET and ES using the formulas given above.

 

(c) How large do we have to choose N so that the approximations TN and SN to the integral
in part (a) are accurate to within 0.00001?

 

5.10 Improper Integrals
Two main types of improper integrals:
Infinite Intervals
Three cases:

 

Convergent vs. Divergent:
Examples: De termine whether each of the following is convergent or divergent. Evaluate
those that are convergent.

Comparison Test: Assume that f(x)≥g(x)≥0 for x≥a.
•Ifconverges, thenconverges.
•Ifdiverges, thendiverges.

Examples: Use the Comparison Test to determine whether the integral is convergent or
divergent.
