Hey everyone, I had a recent post similar to this one, and everyone may have not understood it because I didn't use LaTeX, so here it is.
Integrate the area under [itex]\frac{x}{3x}[/itex] and above [itex]\frac{x}{3x^.5}[/itex] between x=1 and x=4.
Same as: [itex]\int[/itex] [itex]\frac{x}{3x}[/itex] - [itex]\frac{x}{3x^.5}[/itex] dx between x=1 and x=4.
See above
I would integrate each individual fraction by raising each by 1 power, and dividing the coefficient by that new exponent. Each time that I try this, no matter how I simplify it, the answer turns out to be way too small.
What should I try next?
