The greatest integer less than or equal to ∫₁²log₂(x³+1) dx+∫₁^(log₂9)(2ˣ-1)^(1/3) dx is ________. Given: I=∫12log⁡2(x3+1) dx+∫1log⁡29(2x−1)1/3 dx\text{Given: } I = \displaystyle\int_{1}^{2}\log_{2}(x^{3}+1)\,dx + \int_{1}^{\log_{2}9}(2^{x}-1)^{1/3}\,dx To find: ⌊I⌋\text{To find: } \left\lfloor I \right\rfloor 1. the integrands are inverses1.\ \text{the integrands are inverses} 2. inverse-function area identity2.\ \text{inverse-function area identity} 3. bound the value⇒⌊I⌋3.\ \text{bound the value} \Rightarrow \lfloor I \rfloor y=log⁡2(x3+1)  ⟺  x=(2y−1)1/3y = \log_2(x^3+1) \iff x = (2^y - 1)^{1/3} so the two integrands are inverse functions\text{so the two integrands are inverse functions} f(1)=1,f(2)=log⁡29;f−1(1)=1,f−1(log⁡29)=2f(1) = 1,\quad f(2) = \log_2 9;\qquad f^{-1}(1) = 1,\quad f^{-1}(\log_2 9) = 2 ∫abf(x) dx+∫f(a)f(b)f−1(y) dy=b f(b)−a f(a)\int_a^b f(x)\,dx + \int_{f(a)}^{f(b)} f^{-1}(y)\,dy = b\,f(b) - a\,f(a) I=2log⁡29−1I = 2\log_2 9 - 1 23=8<9<16=24⇒3<log⁡29<42^3 = 8 < 9 < 16 = 2^4 \Rightarrow 3 < \log_2 9 < 4 23.5=82≈11.3>9⇒3<log⁡29<3.52^{3.5} = 8\sqrt2 \approx 11.3 > 9 \Rightarrow 3 < \log_2 9 < 3.5 ⇒5<I<6\Rightarrow 5 < I < 6 ⌊I⌋=5\left\lfloor I \right\rfloor = 5 5\boxed{5}
