Lifetime of a tire Assume the random variable L in Example 2f is normally distributed with mean μ = 22,000 miles and σ = 4,000 miles.
a. In a batch of 4000 tires, how many can be expected to last for at least 18,000 miles?

Using different substitutions
Show that the integral
∫((x² - 1)(x + 1))^(-2/3) dx
can be evaluated with any of the following substitutions.
a. u = 1/(x + 1)
What is the value of the integral?
Consider the region bounded by the graphs of
y = ln(x), y = 0, and x = e.
a. Find the area of the region.
In Exercises 11–22, estimate the minimum number of subintervals needed to approximate the integrals with an error of magnitude less than 10^-4 by (a) the Trapezoidal Rule (The integrals in Exercises 11–18 are the integrals from Exercises 1–8.)
∫ from -1 to 1 of (t³ + 1) dt
Finding area
Find the area of the region enclosed by the curve y = x cos(x) and the x-axis (see the accompanying figure) for:
a. π/2 ≤ x ≤ 3π/2.
Evaluate ∫ sec θ dθ by:
a. Multiplying by (sec θ + tan θ) / (sec θ + tan θ) and then using a u-substitution.
