Consider the integral I_m= ₀^ 2 m x x d x , where m is a positive integer. What is I_m equal to?
Options
- A0
- B1
- Cm
- D2m
Correct answer
A. 0
Step-by-step solution
I _ m = ₀^ 2 mx x dx aligned & = ₀^ 2 m( -x) ( -x) d x aligned = ₀^ (2 m -2 m x) x d x= ₀^ - 2 mx x dx aligned & I _ m =- ₀^ 2 mx x dx & 2 I _ m =0 I _ m =0 aligned
