(x + 2x5 )dx as a limit of Riemann sums, using right endpoints.
Let f (x) = 2x5 + x. We want to write the integral as a sum of n rectangles with height, and then
4
take the limit as n → ∞. The width of each rectangle will be 5−1
n = n . Using right endpoints, the
height of the rectangles is f (1 + 1 · 4/n), f (1 + 2 · 4/n), . . ., f (1 + i · 4/n).

Problem 4: Find the area bounded between the curves 4x + y 2 = 12 and x = y.
We make the substitution y = x so we may easily graph the region of interest. Next we compute the

intersection points of the two curves by setting them equal to each other: x = 3− x4 ⇒ x2 +4x−12 =
0 ⇒ x = −6, x = 2.

to use the method of cylindrical shells. The average radius of the cylinder will be 1 − x and
the height will be e−x − 0.

This is an absolute value integral. Let f (x) = x2 − 4x. We are interested to know where f (x) is
positive and negative in the interval [−2, 2]. Note that f (x) has roots x = 0 and x = 4. We check
the function at a value in (−2, 0) and (0, 2):
f (−1) = (−1)2 − 4(−1) = 5
f (1) = (1)2 − 4(1) = −3.
Thus f (x) > 0 on the interval (−2, 0) and f (x) < 0 on the interval (0, 2). After splitting up the
integral with the appropriate signs, the integration is basic:

For this integral we will need to combine many techniques including completing the square, u−substitution,
and trigonometric substitution. We begin by completing the square, noting that (4x2 − 4x − 3)1/2 =
2(x2 − x − 3/4)1/2 = 2((x − 1/2)2 − 1)1/2 . Then we use a u−substitution letting u = x − 1/2,
du = dx. Finally, we will use a trig-sub letting u = sec θ, du = sec θ tan θdθ, and using the identity
sec2 θ − 1 = tan2 θ.
