  1. Given equation

We are given

2(x+2)2f(x)−3(x+2)2=10∫0x(t+2)f(t) dt,x≥0.2(x+2)^2 f(x)-3(x+2)^2=10 \int_0^x (t+2)f(t)\,dt, \qquad x\ge 0.2(x+2)2f(x)−3(x+2)2=10∫0x​(t+2)f(t)dt,x≥0.

We need to find f(2)f(2)f(2).


  1. Differentiate both sides

Let

I(x)=∫0x(t+2)f(t) dt.I(x)=\int_0^x (t+2)f(t)\,dt.I(x)=∫0x​(t+2)f(t)dt.

Then by the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus,

I′(x)=(x+2)f(x).I'(x)=(x+2)f(x).I′(x)=(x+2)f(x).

Differentiate the given equation with respect to xxx:

ddx[2(x+2)2f(x)−3(x+2)2]=ddx[10I(x)].\frac{d}{dx}\left[2(x+2)^2f(x)-3(x+2)^2\right]=\frac{d}{dx}\left[10I(x)\right].dxd​[2(x+2)2f(x)−3(x+2)2]=dxd​[10I(x)].

Now,

ddx[2(x+2)2f(x)]=4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)2f′(x),\frac{d}{dx}\left[2(x+2)^2f(x)\right]=4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)^2f'(x),dxd​[2(x+2)2f(x)]=4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)2f′(x),

and

ddx[−3(x+2)2]=−6(x+2).\frac{d}{dx}\left[-3(x+2)^2\right]=-6(x+2).dxd​[−3(x+2)2]=−6(x+2).

Also,

ddx[10I(x)]=10(x+2)f(x).\frac{d}{dx}[10I(x)]=10(x+2)f(x).dxd​[10I(x)]=10(x+2)f(x).

So,

4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)2f′(x)−6(x+2)=10(x+2)f(x).4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)^2f'(x)-6(x+2)=10(x+2)f(x).4(x+2)f(x)+2(x+2)2f′(x)−6(x+2)=10(x+2)f(x).

Since x≥0x\ge 0x≥0, we have x+2>0x+2>0x+2>0, so divide by 2(x+2)2(x+2)2(x+2):

2f(x)+(x+2)f′(x)−3=5f(x).2f(x)+(x+2)f'(x)-3=5f(x).2f(x)+(x+2)f′(x)−3=5f(x).

Thus,

(x+2)f′(x)−3f(x)−3=0,(x+2)f'(x)-3f(x)-3=0,(x+2)f′(x)−3f(x)−3=0,

or

(x+2)f′(x)−3f(x)=3.(x+2)f'(x)-3f(x)=3.(x+2)f′(x)−3f(x)=3.
  1. Solve the differential equation

Rewrite as

f′(x)−3x+2f(x)=3x+2.f'(x)-\frac{3}{x+2}f(x)=\frac{3}{x+2}.f′(x)−x+23​f(x)=x+23​.

This is a linear differential equation.

The integrating factor is

I.F.=e∫−3x+2 dx=e−3ln⁡(x+2)=(x+2)−3.\text{I.F.}=e^{\int -\frac{3}{x+2}\,dx}=e^{-3\ln(x+2)}=(x+2)^{-3}.I.F.=e∫−x+23​dx=e−3ln(x+2)=(x+2)−3.

Multiply the equation by (x+2)−3(x+2)^{-3}(x+2)−3:

(x+2)−3f′(x)−3x+2(x+2)−3f(x)=3(x+2)−4.(x+2)^{-3}f'(x)-\frac{3}{x+2}(x+2)^{-3}f(x)=3(x+2)^{-4}.(x+2)−3f′(x)−x+23​(x+2)−3f(x)=3(x+2)−4.

Hence,

ddx[f(x)(x+2)−3]=3(x+2)−4.\frac{d}{dx}\left[f(x)(x+2)^{-3}\right]=3(x+2)^{-4}.dxd​[f(x)(x+2)−3]=3(x+2)−4.

Integrate:

f(x)(x+2)−3=∫3(x+2)−4 dx+C.f(x)(x+2)^{-3}=\int 3(x+2)^{-4}\,dx + C.f(x)(x+2)−3=∫3(x+2)−4dx+C.

Now,

∫3(x+2)−4 dx=3⋅(x+2)−3−3=−(x+2)−3.\int 3(x+2)^{-4}\,dx = 3\cdot \frac{(x+2)^{-3}}{-3}=-(x+2)^{-3}.∫3(x+2)−4dx=3⋅−3(x+2)−3​=−(x+2)−3.

So,

f(x)(x+2)−3=−(x+2)−3+C.f(x)(x+2)^{-3}=-(x+2)^{-3}+C.f(x)(x+2)−3=−(x+2)−3+C.

Multiply by (x+2)3(x+2)^3(x+2)3:

f(x)=−1+C(x+2)3.f(x)=-1+C(x+2)^3.f(x)=−1+C(x+2)3.
  1. Find the constant using the original equation at x=0x=0x=0

Put x=0x=0x=0 in the given equation:

2(2)2f(0)−3(2)2=10∫00(t+2)f(t)dt.2(2)^2 f(0)-3(2)^2=10\int_0^0 (t+2)f(t)dt.2(2)2f(0)−3(2)2=10∫00​(t+2)f(t)dt.

Since the integral is 000,

8f(0)−12=08f(0)-12=08f(0)−12=0

which gives

f(0)=128=32.f(0)=\frac{12}{8}=\frac{3}{2}.f(0)=812​=23​.

From

f(x)=−1+C(x+2)3,f(x)=-1+C(x+2)^3,f(x)=−1+C(x+2)3,

we get

f(0)=−1+8C=32.f(0)=-1+8C=\frac{3}{2}.f(0)=−1+8C=23​.

Thus,

8C=528C=\frac{5}{2}8C=25​

so

C=516.C=\frac{5}{16}.C=165​.

Hence,

f(x)=−1+516(x+2)3.f(x)=-1+\frac{5}{16}(x+2)^3.f(x)=−1+165​(x+2)3.
  1. Compute f(2)f(2)f(2)
f(2)=−1+516(4)3.f(2)=-1+\frac{5}{16}(4)^3.f(2)=−1+165​(4)3.

Since 43=644^3=6443=64,

f(2)=−1+516⋅64=−1+20=19.f(2)=-1+\frac{5}{16}\cdot 64=-1+20=19.f(2)=−1+165​⋅64=−1+20=19.
