1. 136.170: Test #1 Solutions

[7] 1.Compute . Do not simplify.

[Recall that , and that ]

Solution:

[5] 2. Suppose = 7 and suppose . Find .

Solution.

3. In the following questions use area to compute the integrals.

[6] (a) .

Solution (a): Denote . Then . So this function is odd. Therefore, because of symmetry, the integral is 0.

[7] (b) , where .

The integral is the signed area of the shaded region; the region below the x-axis has area of 1/2 while the one above has area of 1. The integral is thus -1/2+1=1/2.
