hey, I cannot do this last question, any help really appreciated:

Find the area between the curve y=e (power x) + 1/x and the x-axis and the lines x=1 and x=e.

Give answer exactly, as an expression involving e.

Thank you

Integrate the function from 1 to e

e^x integrates to e^x so between 1 and e is e^e-e
between 1 and e, ln x integrates to 1.

add the two together and you get e^e -e +1

I will translate your given expression:

f(x)=exp(x) + 1/x

(Remember that exp(x) is the same thing that saying e to the power of x)

You are asking for the integral of f(x) computed from x=1 and x=e
(being Int = the symbol of integral):

Int(exp(x) + 1/x) =
Int(exp(x)) + Int(1/x) = exp(x) + ln(x) from x=1 to x=e
exp(e)-exp(1) + ln(e)-ln(1) = exp(e)-e+1-0 =
exp(e) - e

In your notation would be: Area = e^e - e

That´s it!

Good luck!

She demands to get a being pregnant scan simply to be unique. Just for the reason that she had her tubes tied, does not imply she's now not pregnant. In reality, it demands to be looked at immediately because it might be an ectopic being pregnant that's fairly harmful for her. Otherwise, she might be going by way of early menopause.
