Medium MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2022

The value of the integral

$\int\limits_{ - 2}^2 {{{|{x^3} + x|} \over {({e^{x|x|}} + 1)}}dx}$ is equal to :

  1. A 5e<sup>2</sup>
  2. B 3e<sup>$-$2</sup>
  3. C 4
  4. D 6 Correct answer

Solution

<p>$I = \int\limits_{ - 2}^2 {{{|{x^3} + x|} \over {{e^{x|x|}} + 1}}dx}$ ..... (i)</p> <p>$I = \int\limits_{ - 2}^2 {{{|{x^3} + x|} \over {{e^{ - x|x|}} + 1}}dx}$ ..... (ii)</p> <p>$2I = \int\limits_{ - 2}^2 {|{x^3} + x|dx}$</p> <p>$2I =2 \int\limits_0^2 {({x^3} + x)dx}$</p> <p>$I = \int\limits_0^2 {({x^3} + x)dx}$</p> <p>$= \left. {{{{x^4}} \over 4} + {{{x^2}} \over 2}} \right]_0^2$</p> <p>$= \left( {{{16} \over 4} + {4 \over 2}} \right) - 0$</p> <p>$= 4 + 2 = 6$</p>
