Question 1 Report

Evaluate \(\int_{0}^{2} (8x - 4x^{2}) \mathrm {d} x\).

Answer Details
To evaluate \(\int_{0}^{2} (8x - 4x^{2}) \mathrm {d} x\), we first need to find the antiderivative of the integrand with respect to x. \[\int (8x - 4x^{2}) \mathrm {d} x = 4x^{2} - \frac{4}{3} x^{3} + C\] where C is the constant of integration. Using the limits of integration, we can evaluate the definite integral as follows: \[\int_{0}^{2} (8x - 4x^{2}) \mathrm {d} x = \left[4x^{2} - \frac{4}{3} x^{3}\right]_{0}^{2}\] \[= \left[4(2)^{2} - \frac{4}{3}(2)^{3}\right] - \left[4(0)^{2} - \frac{4}{3}(0)^{3}\right]\] \[= \frac{16}{3}\] Therefore, the answer is \(\frac{16}{3}\). Option (c) is the correct answer.
