Calculate the following Integral.

$\int_{0}^{1}\int_{x}^{x^2} xy^2 dydx$

$-\frac{3}{120}$

CORRECT

$-\frac{1}{120}$

$\frac{1}{120}$

Explanation

$\int_{0}^{1}\int_{x}^{x^2} xy^2 dydx=\int_{0}^{1}\Big(\int_{x}^{x^2} xy^2 dy\Big)dx$

Lets deal with the inner integral first.

$\int_{x}^{x^2}xy^2 dy$

$\int_{x}^{x^2}xy^2 dy=\frac{1}{3}y^3x\Big|_{x}^{x^2}$

$=(\frac{1}{3}(x^2)^3\cdot x)-(\frac{1}{3}x^3\cdot x)$

$=\frac{1}{3}x^7-\frac{1}{3}x^4$

Now we evaluate this expression in the outer integral.

$\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{3}x^7-\frac{1}{3}x^4dx$

$=\frac{1}{3}\int_{0}^{1} x^7-x^4dx$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big( \frac{1}{8}x^8-\frac{1}{5}x^5\Big)\Big|_{0}^{1}$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{1}{8}1^8-\frac{1}{5}1^5\Big)-\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{1}{8}0^8-\frac{1}{5}0^5\Big)$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{5}\Big)-\frac{1}{3}\Big(0-0\Big)$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{5}{40}-\frac{8}{40}\Big)$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(-\frac{3}{40}\Big)=-\frac{3}{120}$

Calculate the following Integral.

$\int_{0}^{1}\int_{x}^{x^2} xy^2 dydx$

$-\frac{3}{120}$

CORRECT

$-\frac{1}{120}$

$\frac{1}{120}$

Explanation

$\int_{0}^{1}\int_{x}^{x^2} xy^2 dydx=\int_{0}^{1}\Big(\int_{x}^{x^2} xy^2 dy\Big)dx$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big( \frac{1}{8}x^8-\frac{1}{5}x^5\Big)\Big|_{0}^{1}$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{1}{8}1^8-\frac{1}{5}1^5\Big)-\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{1}{8}0^8-\frac{1}{5}0^5\Big)$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{5}\Big)-\frac{1}{3}\Big(0-0\Big)$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(\frac{5}{40}-\frac{8}{40}\Big)$

$=\frac{1}{3}\Big(-\frac{3}{40}\Big)=-\frac{3}{120}$
