integral from-3 to 5 of 1/((x-2)^3)

\int_{- 3}^{5} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{3}} d x

diverges

Solution steps

\int_{- 3}^{5} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{3}} d x

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 2

If exist

b, a < b < c, f (b) =

undefined

, \int_{a}^{c} f (x) d x = \int_{a}^{b} f (x) d x + \int_{b}^{c} f (x) d x

= \int_{- 3}^{2} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{3}} d x + \int_{2}^{5} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{3}} d x

\int_{- 3}^{2} \frac{1}{( x - 2 ) ^{3}} d x =

diverges

If part of the expression diverges, then entire expression diverges

= diverges
