Evaluate the integral I = integral from 0 to 10 of ([x]*e^[x])/(e^x - 1) dx, where [x] denotes the greatest integer function (floor of x). The value of I is:
- 9*(e - 1)
- 45*(e + 1)
- 45*(e - 1)
- 9*(e + 1)
Correct answer: 45*(e - 1)
Solution
Splitting over [n, n+1) and using the substitution, each integral evaluates so that summing n from 1 to 9 gives the factor sum 1+2+...+9=45, with each unit piece contributing (e-1), yielding I = 45*(e-1).
