Mathematics Question on Integrals of Some Particular Functions
Let f(x)=0∫xg(t)dt , where g is a non-zero even function. If f(x+5)=g(x), then 0∫xf(t)dt equals-
A
x+5∫5g(t)dt
B
5x+5∫5g(t)dt
C
5∫x+5g(t)dt
D
25∫x+5g(t)dt
Answer
x+5∫5g(t)dt
Explanation
Solution
f(x)=∫0xg(t)dt
f(−x)=∫0−xg(t)dt
put t=−u
=−∫0xg(−u)du
=−∫0xg(u)d(u)=−f(x)
⇒f(−x)=−f(x)
⇒f(x) is an odd function
Also f(5+x)=g(x)
