JEE Main 2024 — 6 April, Shift 2 — Question 24

Let [t] denote the largest integer less than or equal to t.

If ∫03([x2]+[x22])dx=a+b2−3−5+c6−7\int_{0}^{3}\left(\left[x^{2}\right]+\left[\frac{x^{2}}{2}\right]\right) d x=a+b \sqrt{2}-\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{5}+c \sqrt{6}-\sqrt{7}, where a,b,c∈za, b, c \in z, then a+b+ca+b+c

is equal to \qquad

Answer: 23

Numerical answer — enter this value.

Step-by-step solution

∫03[x2]dx+∫03[x22]dx\int_{0}^{3}\left[x^{2}\right] d x+\int_{0}^{3}\left[\frac{x^{2}}{2}\right] d x

=∫010dx+∫1121dx+∫232dx=\int_{0}^{1} 0 d x+\int_{1}^{12} 1 d x+\int_{\sqrt{2}}^{\sqrt{3}} 2 d x
