integral from 1 to 2 of (x^2+1/(x^4))

\int_{1}^{2} (x^{2} + \frac{1}{x ^{4}}) d x

\frac{21}{8}

Decimal

2.625

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{2} x^{2} + \frac{1}{x ^{4}} d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int_{1}^{2} x^{2} d x + \int_{1}^{2} \frac{1}{x ^{4}} d x

\int_{1}^{2} x^{2} d x = \frac{7}{3}

\int_{1}^{2} \frac{1}{x ^{4}} d x = \frac{7}{24}

= \frac{7}{3} + \frac{7}{24}

Simplify

\frac{7}{3} + \frac{7}{24} : \frac{21}{8}

= \frac{21}{8}
