Let f(x) and g(x) be two functions satisfying f(x2) + g(4 $-$ x) = 4x3 and g(4 $-$ x) + g(x) = 0, then the value of $\int\limits_{ - 4}^4 {f{{(x)}^2}dx}$ is
Answer (integer)
512
Solution
$I = 2\int\limits_0^4 {f({x^2})dx}$ ............(1)<br><br>$\Rightarrow I = 2\int\limits_0^4 {f({{(4 - x)}^2})dx}$ ..............(2)<br><br>Adding equation (1) & (2)<br><br>$2I = 2\int\limits_0^4 {\left[ {f{{(x)}^2} + f{{(4 - x)}^2}} \right]} \,dx$ ............(3)<br><br>Now using $f{(x^2)} + g(4 - x) = 4{x^3}$ ............. (4)<br><br>$x \to 4 - x$<br><br>$f({(4 - x)^2}) + g(x) = 4{(4 - x)^3}$ ..............(5)<br><br>Adding equation (4) & (5)<br><br>$f({x^2}) + f(4 - {x^2}) + g(x) + g(4 - x) = 4({x^3} + {(4 - x)^3}]$<br><br>$\Rightarrow f({x^2}) + f(4 - {x^2}) = 4({x^3} + {(4 - x)^3}]$<br><br>Now, $I = 4\int\limits_0^4 {\left( {{x^3} + {{(4 - x)}^3}} \right)dx = 512}$
