This chapter discusses various methods of integration including integration by parts, integration by partial fractions, and integration using tables of integrals. It also covers applications of integration such as finding the average value of a function, solving differential equations using separation of variables, and modeling population growth and decay using differential equations. Examples are provided to illustrate each method and application discussed.

Example 1 – Logistic Growth of Club Membership
Suppose the membership in a new country club is to
be a maximum of 800 persons, due to limitations of
the physical plant. One year ago the initial
membership was 50 persons, and now there are 200.
Provided that enrollment follows a logistic function,
how many members will there be three years from
now?

Example 3 – Time of Murder
A wealthy industrialist was found murdered in his
home. Police arrived on the scene at 11:00 P.M. The
temperature of the body at that time was 31◦C, and
one hour later it was 30◦C. The temperature of the
room in which the body was found was 22◦C.
Estimate the time at which the murder occurred.
Solution:
Let t = no. of hours after the body was discovered and
T(t) = temperature of the body at time t.
