Weekly Math Problem! #5

Improper Integrals. A calculus thing. There's just something about solving integrals that I find very intriguing and that's probably because it requires more thought and "tricks" to get the solution, as compared to taking derivatives. But that's also the annoying thing--sometimes trying to figure out what sort of "tricks" are needed to help you figure the integral out. 🙄 

Like verifying trigonometric identities (see WMP! #3), these type of problems are also like puzzles to me. To solve this week's problem in completion, you need to recall the following math skills:

    ✔️  Methods for solving integrals
    ✔️  Finding limits 
    ✔️  Using logarithmic rules 


It's been a super long while since I've solved an improper integral so...here goes WMP! #5... 


Happy solving! Check back on Friday, June 5th for the solution, which will be posted below ⬇️.

I don't know how much calculus you remember. I don't know how many limit rules you remember. I don't how much you remember about exponential functions. But, if you're like me, you didn't remember enough right off the top of your head to get this problem done quickly. 🤷🏿‍♀️ 🥴 



◾️ Was your solution this long?? (...Or is it just me??
◾️ Comment below with your responses and let me know what you thought about this week's problem.

Coming up next...WMP! #6 👀


Cheers!
