Any ordinates given or assuming first quadrant?

Infinity.

If bounds are given, use the formula



and use

(for all )

(remember to give your answers in cubic units!)

Well to summ wat the above posts states is the

x = e ^ (lnx)

is the same thing right?

didnt finish it fully, should be right if i didnt make silly errors, but you want to reach there

Herowise one of your coefficients is not correct.

that is some funky integration going on there:

Might be easier to use change of base before integrating. Also maybe leave the exponent as x rather than x+1 before integrating. Less likely to make mistakes that way.
I'll do an improper integral here:






or














This is the improper integral. The integral with limits is done in a similar fashion.

Pfft i feel dumb, i see where i went wrong, thanks a lot anyway @dan964


EDIT: Wait, no i got the same result as yours @dan964, but i didnt simplify it. if i had, it would come down to your answer, and the ordinates, as i said, im geussing the question is asking for first quadrant, i remember a similar question while going over the Cambridge book, so i just "geussed". That isnt really good but i think the working should suffice the OP

This is what I got you will see the question from the textbook and my solutions I can't seem to get 13c. The books solution is pi(9-8/log3) u^3

Can someone please write the full solution to 13c

Can you tell us the ordinates then, because as the working out provided by both @dan964 and i are elligible, so just put in the ordinates like normal integration, or provide us with ordinates; thatd be helpful for us ty

or send a pic of the whole excercise
