What is $int_0^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3}dx$ upto $2$ decimal places?

$begingroup$


In an examination, I was asked to calculate $int_0^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3}dx$. Options were gives as




a - 0.00

b - 0.02

c - 0.10

d - 0.33

e - 1.00




Just look at the questions I felt the integral $I geq sum_0^1{}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3} = 0.33$. I felt, since numerator is very small as compared to denominator therefore, for value $epsilon<1$, $1.00 $ isn't possible. So, I chose option d. But I am not sure whether its correct or not as I didn't follow standard procedure.



what is the correct answer and How can it be solved using a standard procedure?

          Since $1+x^2+x^3 ge 1$ for $x ge 0$, we have
          $$
          int_0^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3} , dx
          le
          int_0^{1}x^{300} , dx
          =frac{1}{301}
          <frac{1}{300}
          =0.00333cdots
          $$
          This is enough to answer the question.



          A little more work gives a good estimate of the integral.



          Since $1+x^2+x^3 le 3$ for $x ge 0$, we have
          $$
          int_0^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3} , dx
          ge
          int_0^{1} frac{1}{3} x^{300} , dx
          =frac{1}{903}
          $$
          Thus
          $$
          0.001107
          <
          frac{1}{903}
          le
          int_0^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3} , dx
          le
          frac{1}{301}
          <
          0.003323
          $$

          Since $frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3}$ has a zero of order $300$ at the origin, most of the mass of the integral $int_{0}^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3},dx$ comes from a neighbourhood of the right endpoint of the integration range. Obviously $int_{0}^{1}frac{x^{300}}{3},dx=frac{1}{903}$, and



          $$ I-frac{1}{903}=int_{0}^{1}x^{300}left(frac{1}{1+x^2+x^3}-frac{1}{3}right),dx =int_{0}^{1}x^{300}(1-x)frac{2+2x+x^2}{3(1+x^2+x^3)},dx$$
          is bounded by
          $$ int_{0}^{1}x^{300}(1-x),dx = frac{1}{301cdot 302} $$
          hence the wanted integral is $color{green}{0.0011}$(unknown digits).

            Since $frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3}$ has a zero of order $300$ at the origin, most of the mass of the integral $int_{0}^{1}frac{x^{300}}{1+x^2+x^3},dx$ comes from a neighbourhood of the right endpoint of the integration range. Obviously $int_{0}^{1}frac{x^{300}}{3},dx=frac{1}{903}$, and



            $$ I-frac{1}{903}=int_{0}^{1}x^{300}left(frac{1}{1+x^2+x^3}-frac{1}{3}right),dx =int_{0}^{1}x^{300}(1-x)frac{2+2x+x^2}{3(1+x^2+x^3)},dx$$
            is bounded by
            $$ int_{0}^{1}x^{300}(1-x),dx = frac{1}{301cdot 302} $$
            hence the wanted integral is $color{green}{0.0011}$(unknown digits).

But now she wants to access the files online, I cannot remember what Microsoft account I setup and linked her skydive app to and nor can I see anything in the skydrive app settings to tell me either? How can I see the name of the Microsoft account the skydive app is currently linked to?

                    When does type information flow backwards in C++?

                    Image
                    up vote 62 down vote favorite 19 I just watched Stephan T. Lavavej talk at CppCon 2018 on "Class Template Argument Deduction", where at some point he incidentally says: In C++ type information almost never flows backwards ... I had to say "almost" because there's one or two cases, possibly more but very few . Despite trying to figure out which cases he might be referring to, I couldn't come up with anything. Hence the question: In which cases the C++17 standard mandates that type information propagate backwards? c++ language-lawyer c++17 share | improve this question edited 7 hours ago scohe0
