Question
Evaluate the following definite integrals:
$\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\sin^3\text{x}\text{ dx}$

Answer

Let $\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\sin^3\text{x}\text{ dx}$ Then,
$\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\sin\text{x }\sin^2\text{x}\text{ dx}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\int_{0}^\limits{\frac{\pi}{2}}\sin\text{x}(1-\cos^2\text{x})\text{dx}$
Let $\text{u}=\cos\text{x},\text{ du}=-\sin\text{x dx}$
$\therefore\ \text{I}=\int-(1-\text{u}^2)\text{du}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\Big[\frac{\text{u}^3}{3}-\text{u}\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\Big[\frac{\cos^3\text{x}}{3}-\cos\text{x}\Big]^{\frac{\pi}{2}}_0$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=0-\frac{1}{3}+1$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=\frac{2}{3}$

A medical company has factories at two places, A and B. From these places, supply is made to each of its three agencies situated at P, Q and R. The monthly requirements of the agencies are respectively 40, 40 and 50 packets of the medicines, while the production capacity of the factories, A and B, are 60 and 70 packets respectively. The transportation cost per packet from the factories to the agencies are given below:

How many packets from each factory be transported to each agency so that the cost of transportation is minimum? Also find the minimum cost?

A dealer in rural area wishes to purchase a number of sewing machines. He has only ₹ 5,760 to invest and has space for at most 20 items for storage. An electronic sewing machine costs him  360 and a manually operated sewing machine ₹ 240. He can sell the sewing machine at a profit of ₹ 22 and a manually operated sewing machine at a profit of ₹ 18. Assuming that he can sell all the items that he can buy, how should he invest his money in order to maximize his profit? Make it as an LPP and solve it graphically.
