If ∫ 0 3 15 x 3 1 + x 2 + 1 + x 2 3 d x = α 2 + β 3 , where α , β are integers,…

If 0315x31+x2+1+x23dx=α2+β3, where α,β are integers, then α+β is equal to

Solution

Given,

0315x31+x2+1+x23dx=α2+β3

Taking L.H.S we get 0315x31+x2+1+x23dx

Now put 1+x2=t2

2xdx=2tdt

xdt=tdt

 1215t2-1tdtt2+t3

=1512tt2-1t1+tdt

Now put 1+t=u2dt=2udu

So, the integral will be 1523u2-12-1u×2udu

=3023u4-2u2du

=30u55-2u3323

=301535-25-2333-23

=301593-42-2333-22

=30-15×3+8152

=-63+162

So, 0415x31+x2+1+x23dx=α2+β3

-63+162=α2+β3

Now on comparing we get, α=16,β=-6

 α+β=10
