Let f:[1,∞)→[2,∞) be a differentiable function such that f(1)=2. If 6∫₁ˣf(t) dt=3xf(x)-x³ for all x≥ 1, then the value of f(2) is ________.
f:[1,∞)→[2,∞),f(1)=2
6∫1xf(t)dt=3xf(x)−x3,x≥1
To find: f(2)
Plan: 1. differentiate both sides
2. get a linear ODE f′−xf=x
3. use f(1)=2⇒f(2)
dxd[6∫1xf(t)dt]=6f(x)
dxd[3xf(x)−x3]=3f(x)+3xf′(x)−3x2
6f(x)=3f(x)+3xf′(x)−3x2
f(x)=xf′(x)−x2⇒xf′(x)−f(x)=x2
f′(x)−x1f(x)=x
Linear: f′+Pf=Q,P=−x1
μ=e∫Pdx=e−lnx=x1
dxd(xf)=1
xf=x+C
f(x)=x2+Cx
f(1)=1+C=2⇒C=1
f(x)=x2+x
f(2)=22+2=4+2=6
