If the integral 010sin2πxex-xdx=αe-1+βe-12+γ, where α, β, γ are integers and x denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x, then the value of α+β+γ is equal to:
  1. 0
  2. 20
  3. 25
  4. 10

Solution

Let I=010sin2πxex-xdx=010sin2πxexdx, where x-x=x is the fractional part function.

We know that the x is a periodic function with period 1 and also that sin2πx is a periodic function with period 2π2π=1.

Thus, the function fx=sin2πxex is periodic with period 1.

If fx is a periodic function with period T then 0nTfxdx=n0Tfxdx, nN

Therefore I=1001sin2πxexdx

I=1001sin2πxexdx

Now, for 0x1 -1sin2πx1, hence sin2x can take values 0 and -1

I=1001/2sin2πxexdx+1/21sin2πxexdx

I=100+1/21(-1)exdx

I=-101/21e-xdx

I=10e-x1/21

I=10e-1-e-1/2

Given, I=αe-1+βe-12+γ, thus α=10, β=-10, γ=0.

And, α+β+γ=10-10=0.
