integral from 1 to 3 of (x^2+2x-4)

\int_{1}^{3} (x^{2} + 2 x - 4) d x

\frac{26}{3}

Decimal

8.66666 \dots

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{3} x^{2} + 2 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}^{3} x^{2} d x + \int_{1}^{3} 2 x d x - \int_{1}^{3} 4 d x

\int_{1}^{3} x^{2} d x = \frac{26}{3}

\int_{1}^{3} 2 x d x = 8

\int_{1}^{3} 4 d x = 8

= \frac{26}{3} + 8 - 8

Simplify

= \frac{26}{3}
