    This document contains solutions to homework problems from a Math 171 class in Spring 2005. It solves integrals involving absolute values, square roots, logarithms, and trigonometric functions. It also finds derivatives of integrals and defines a function L(x) as the integral from 1 to x of 1/t dt. It is shown that L(x) is differentiable and strictly increasing, with derivative 1/x. It also proves that L(xq) = qL(x) for rational numbers q and positive x.

    Let H(t) be an antiderivative of h(t), i.e. H (t) = h(t). Then

    (a) Prove that L is differentiable and strictly increasing on (0, ), with L0 (x) =
    L(1) = 0.

    Since L0 (x) > 0 on (0, ), L(x) is strictly increasing on (0, ).

    L(1) =

    1 t
    (c) Using the fact that (xq )0 = qxq1 for x > 0 and q Q, prove that L(xq ) = qL(x) for
    all q Q and x > 0. (Hint: compare derivatives of L(xq ) and qL(x).)
    (L(xq ))0 = L0 (xq ) (xq )0 =

    Then L(xq ) = qL(x) + c.


    L(1) = qL(1) + c.
    Since L(1) = 0, we have c = 0.
    So L(xq ) = qL(x).
