Question

Determine which value best approximates the arc length represented by the integral. Make your selection on the basis of a sketch of the arc, not by performing calculations.

021+[ddx(5x2+1)]2dx\int_0^2 \sqrt{1+\left[\frac{d}{d x}\left(\frac{5}{x^2+1}\right)\right]^2} d x

value=7\text{value} = 7

This exercise aims to determine whether 77 represents the best approximation of the arc length represented by the following integral:

021+[ ⁣d ⁣dx(51+x2)]2dx.\int_0^2\sqrt{1+\left[\dv{}{x}\left(\dfrac{5}{1+x^2}\right)\right]^2}\mathrm dx.

So, we need to determine the arc length of the function f(x)=5x2+1f(x)=\dfrac{5}{x^2+1} from 00 to 22 based on the graph.
