Correct answer

B. 22

Step-by-step solution

Let I=∫−22(∣sin⁡x∣+[xsin⁡x])dx=I1+I2I = \displaystyle\int_{-2}^{2} \left(|\sin x| + [x \sin x]\right) dx = I_1 + I_2, where
I1=∫−22∣sin⁡x∣ dxI_1 = \displaystyle\int_{-2}^{2} |\sin x|\, dx and I2=∫−22[xsin⁡x] dxI_2 = \displaystyle\int_{-2}^{2} [x \sin x]\, dx.

Evaluating I1I_1:
Since ∣sin⁡x∣|\sin x| is even, I1=2∫02∣sin⁡x∣ dxI_1 = 2\displaystyle\int_{0}^{2} |\sin x|\, dx.
For x∈[0,2]x \in [0, 2], 2<π2 < \pi, so sin⁡x≥0\sin x \geq 0 and ∣sin⁡x∣=sin⁡x|\sin x| = \sin x.
I1=2∫02sin⁡x dx=2[−cos⁡x]02=2(1−cos⁡2)=2−2cos⁡2I_1 = 2\displaystyle\int_{0}^{2} \sin x\, dx = 2\left[-\cos x\right]_0^2 = 2(1 - \cos 2) = 2 - 2\cos 2

Evaluating I2I_2:
Let g(x)=xsin⁡xg(x) = x\sin x. Then g(−x)=(−x)sin⁡(−x)=xsin⁡x=g(x)g(-x) = (-x)\sin(-x) = x\sin x = g(x), so g(x)g(x) is even, and hence [xsin⁡x][x\sin x] is also even.
I2=2∫02[xsin⁡x] dxI_2 = 2\displaystyle\int_{0}^{2} [x\sin x]\, dx

Behaviour of y=xsin⁡xy = x\sin x on [0,2][0, 2]:
At x=0x = 0, y=0y = 0. At x=2x = 2, y=2sin⁡2≈1.818y = 2\sin 2 \approx 1.818.
y′=sin⁡x+xcos⁡x>0y' = \sin x + x\cos x > 0 on [0,2][0, 2], so yy is strictly increasing on this interval.

Therefore, xsin⁡xx\sin x takes each value in [0,1.818][0, 1.818] exactly once, and crosses 11 at some unique α∈(0,2)\alpha \in (0, 2) with αsin⁡α=1\alpha\sin\alpha = 1.

For x∈[0,α)x \in [0, \alpha): 0≤xsin⁡x<1⇒[xsin⁡x]=00 \leq x\sin x < 1 \Rightarrow [x\sin x] = 0
For x∈[α,2]x \in [\alpha, 2]: 1≤xsin⁡x<2⇒[xsin⁡x]=11 \leq x\sin x < 2 \Rightarrow [x\sin x] = 1

I2=2(∫0α0 dx+∫α21 dx)=2(2−α)=4−2αI_2 = 2\left(\displaystyle\int_{0}^{\alpha} 0\, dx + \displaystyle\int_{\alpha}^{2} 1\, dx\right) = 2(2 - \alpha) = 4 - 2\alpha

Combining:
I=I1+I2=(2−2cos⁡2)+(4−2α)=6−2cos⁡2−2αI = I_1 + I_2 = (2 - 2\cos 2) + (4 - 2\alpha) = 6 - 2\cos 2 - 2\alpha

Given I=2(3−cos⁡2)+β=6−2cos⁡2+βI = 2(3 - \cos 2) + \beta = 6 - 2\cos 2 + \beta, so:
6−2cos⁡2−2α=6−2cos⁡2+β⇒β=−2α6 - 2\cos 2 - 2\alpha = 6 - 2\cos 2 + \beta \Rightarrow \beta = -2\alpha

Now:
βsin⁡(β2)=−2αsin⁡(−2α2)=−2αsin⁡(−α)=2αsin⁡α\beta \sin\left(\dfrac{\beta}{2}\right) = -2\alpha \sin\left(\dfrac{-2\alpha}{2}\right) = -2\alpha \sin(-\alpha) = 2\alpha\sin\alpha

Since αsin⁡α=1\alpha\sin\alpha = 1:
βsin⁡(β2)=2⋅1=2\beta \sin\left(\dfrac{\beta}{2}\right) = 2 \cdot 1 = 2

Hence, the correct option is (2) 2(2)\ 2.
