Let S=(−1,∞)S=(-1, \infty)S=(−1,∞) and f:S→Rf: S \rightarrow \mathbb{R}f:S→R be defined as f(x)=∫−1x(et−1)11(2t−1)5(t−2)7(t−3)12(2t−10)61dt, f(x)=\int_{-1}^x\left(e^t-1\right)^{11}(2 t-1)^5(t-2)^7(t-3)^{12}(2 t-10)^{61} d t \text {, }f(x)=∫−1x​(et−1)11(2t−1)5(t−2)7(t−3)12(2t−10)61dt,  Let p=\mathrm{p}=p= Sum of squares of the values of xxx, where f(x)f(x)f(x) attains local maxima on SSS, and q=\mathrm{q}=q= Sum of the values of x\mathrm{x}x, where f(x)f(x)f(x) attains local minima on SSS.

Correct answer: 27

  1. We are given
f(x)=∫−1x(et−1)11(2t−1)5(t−2)7(t−3)12(2t−10)61 dt,x∈(−1,∞). f(x)=\int_{-1}^x (e^t-1)^{11}(2t-1)^5(t-2)^7(t-3)^{12}(2t-10)^{61}\,dt, \qquad x\in(-1,\infty).f(x)=∫−1x​(et−1)11(2t−1)5(t−2)7(t−3)12(2t−10)61dt,x∈(−1,∞).

By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus,

f′(x)=(ex−1)11(2x−1)5(x−2)7(x−3)12(2x−10)61. f'(x)=(e^x-1)^{11}(2x-1)^5(x-2)^7(x-3)^{12}(2x-10)^{61}.f′(x)=(ex−1)11(2x−1)5(x−2)7(x−3)12(2x−10)61.

To find local maxima/minima of fff, we study the sign of f′(x)f'(x)f′(x).


  1. Critical points come from the zeros of f′(x)f'(x)f′(x):
  • ex−1=0⇒x=0e^x-1=0 \Rightarrow x=0ex−1=0⇒x=0
  • 2x−1=0⇒x=122x-1=0 \Rightarrow x=\frac122x−1=0⇒x=21​
  • x−2=0⇒x=2x-2=0 \Rightarrow x=2x−2=0⇒x=2
  • x−3=0⇒x=3x-3=0 \Rightarrow x=3x−3=0⇒x=3
  • 2x−10=0⇒x=52x-10=0 \Rightarrow x=52x−10=0⇒x=5

So the critical points in (−1,∞)(-1,\infty)(−1,∞) are

0, 12, 2, 3, 5.0,\ \frac12,\ 2,\ 3,\ 5.0, 21​, 2, 3, 5.
  1. Determine sign changes of f′(x)f'(x)f′(x).

Note:

  • (ex−1)11(e^x-1)^{11}(ex−1)11 has odd power, and since ex−1<0e^x-1<0ex−1<0 for x<0x<0x<0, =0=0=0 at x=0x=0x=0, and >0>0>0 for x>0x>0x>0, its sign is same as (ex−1)(e^x-1)(ex−1).
  • (2x−1)5(2x-1)^5(2x−1)5 has sign of (2x−1)(2x-1)(2x−1).
  • (x−2)7(x-2)^7(x−2)7 has sign of (x−2)(x-2)(x−2).
  • (x−3)12≥0(x-3)^{12}\ge 0(x−3)12≥0 and does not change sign at x=3x=3x=3 because exponent is even.
  • (2x−10)61(2x-10)^{61}(2x−10)61 has sign of (x−5)(x-5)(x−5).

Hence, for sign purposes,

sgn⁡(f′(x))=sgn⁡(ex−1)⋅sgn⁡(2x−1)⋅sgn⁡(x−2)⋅sgn⁡(x−5).\operatorname{sgn}(f'(x))=\operatorname{sgn}(e^x-1)\cdot \operatorname{sgn}(2x-1)\cdot \operatorname{sgn}(x-2)\cdot \operatorname{sgn}(x-5).sgn(f′(x))=sgn(ex−1)⋅sgn(2x−1)⋅sgn(x−2)⋅sgn(x−5).

(The factor (x−3)12(x-3)^{12}(x−3)12 is nonnegative and does not affect sign except making f′(3)=0f'(3)=0f′(3)=0.)

Now check intervals:

(i) −1<x<0-1<x<0−1<x<0

  • ex−1<0e^x-1<0ex−1<0
  • 2x−1<02x-1<02x−1<0
  • x−2<0x-2<0x−2<0
  • x−5<0x-5<0x−5<0

Product of four negatives =+=+=+. So f′(x)>0f'(x)>0f′(x)>0.

(ii) 0<x<120<x<\frac120<x<21​

  • ex−1>0e^x-1>0ex−1>0
  • 2x−1<02x-1<02x−1<0
  • x−2<0x-2<0x−2<0
  • x−5<0x-5<0x−5<0

Product =−= -=−. So f′(x)<0f'(x)<0f′(x)<0.

(iii) 12<x<2\frac12<x<221​<x<2

  • +++, +++, −-−, −-−

Product =+=+=+. So f′(x)>0f'(x)>0f′(x)>0.

(iv) 2<x<32<x<32<x<3

  • +++, +++, +++, −-−

Product =−=-=−. So f′(x)<0f'(x)<0f′(x)<0.

(v) 3<x<53<x<53<x<5

Same signs as previous because (x−3)12(x-3)^{12}(x−3)12 does not change sign:

  • +++, +++, +++, −-−

Product =−=-=−. So f′(x)<0f'(x)<0f′(x)<0.

(vi) x>5x>5x>5

  • +++, +++, +++, +++

Product =+=+=+. So f′(x)>0f'(x)>0f′(x)>0.


  1. Identify local maxima and minima from sign changes:
  • At x=0x=0x=0: f′f'f′ changes +→−+\to-+→−, so fff has a local maximum at x=0x=0x=0.
  • At x=12x=\frac12x=21​: f′f'f′ changes −→+-\to+−→+, so fff has a local minimum at x=12x=\frac12x=21​.
  • At x=2x=2x=2: f′f'f′ changes +→−+\to-+→−, so fff has a local maximum at x=2x=2x=2.
  • At x=3x=3x=3: f′f'f′ changes −→−-\to-−→−, so neither maximum nor minimum.
  • At x=5x=5x=5: f′f'f′ changes −→+-\to+−→+, so fff has a local minimum at x=5x=5x=5.

Thus:

  • Local maxima occur at x=0,2x=0,2x=0,2
  • Local minima occur at x=12,5x=\frac12,5x=21​,5

  1. Compute ppp and qqq.

Given:

p=sum of squares of the values of x where f(x) attains local maxima.p=\text{sum of squares of the values of }x\text{ where }f(x)\text{ attains local maxima.}p=sum of squares of the values of x where f(x) attains local maxima.

So,

p=02+22=4.p=0^2+2^2=4.p=02+22=4.

And

q=sum of the values of x where f(x) attains local minima.q=\text{sum of the values of }x\text{ where }f(x)\text{ attains local minima.}q=sum of the values of x where f(x) attains local minima.

So,

q=12+5=112.q=\frac12+5=\frac{11}{2}.q=21​+5=211​.
  1. Now calculate:
p2+2q=42+2⋅112=16+11=27.p^2+2q=4^2+2\cdot\frac{11}{2}=16+11=27.p2+2q=42+2⋅211​=16+11=27.

Therefore, the required integer is

27.\boxed{27}.27​.
  1. Comparison with stored answer:

Stored correct answer = 272727.

Our derived answer also equals 272727, so it agrees.
