Unit 8: Applications of Integration
Calculus BC · Unit 8 · Paper 3

Applications of Integration unit test

A test on this unit alone, marked as a percentage and a letter grade — for the test your class is actually sitting, rather than for May. Answer everything, then submit once: seeing the answer to question 3 before attempting question 4 makes the final percentage meaningless.

Each paper is built from this unit’s 24 terms and is the same for everyone, so a teacher can assign “Unit 8, Paper 3” and every student sits the identical test. Multiple choice is marked objectively; the written sections you mark yourself against the model answer and rubric.

NO CALCULATOR. Let f be the function defined by f(x) = ∛(x − 1), and let g be the function defined by g(x) = e^(−2x + 4). The graphs of f and g intersect at the point (2, 1). Let R be the region bounded by the graph of f, the x-axis, and the vertical line x = 2, as shown in the figure (R lies between x = 1 and x = 2, under the graph of f).

A. Evaluate ∫₁² f(x) dx. Show the work that leads to your answer.

B. Write, but do not evaluate, an expression involving one or more integrals that gives the volume of the solid generated when region R is rotated about the x-axis.

C. Write, but do not evaluate, an expression involving one or more integrals that gives the perimeter of region R.

D. Evaluate ∫₂^∞ g(x) dx. Show the work that leads to your answer.
