Question:

Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample.

a. The integral ∫ x2e2x dx can be evaluated using integration by parts.

b. To evaluate the integral dx Vx? .2 100 analytically, it is best to use partial fractions.

c. One computer algebra system produces ∫ 2 sin x cos x dx = sin2 x. Another computer algebra system produces ∫ 2 sin x cos x dx = -cos2 x. One computer algebra system is wrong (apart from a missing constant of integration).

d. ∫ 2 sin x cos x dx = -1/2 cos 2x + C.

e. The best approach to evaluating .3 is to use the change of variables u = x3 + 1.
