The correct Answer is:
To find the value of the integral \( I = \int_{0}^{x} \{t\} \, dt \), where \( \{t\} \) denotes the fractional part of \( t \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Express the fractional part The fractional part of \( t \) can be expressed as: \[ \{t\} = t - \lfloor t \rfloor \] where \( \lfloor t \rfloor \) is the greatest integer less than or equal to \( t \). ### Step 2: Rewrite the integral Using the expression for the fractional part, we can rewrite the integral: \[ I = \int_{0}^{x} \{t\} \, dt = \int_{0}^{x} (t - \lfloor t \rfloor) \, dt \] This can be split into two separate integrals: \[ I = \int_{0}^{x} t \, dt - \int_{0}^{x} \lfloor t \rfloor \, dt \] ### Step 3: Calculate the first integral The first integral is straightforward: \[ \int_{0}^{x} t \, dt = \left[ \frac{t^2}{2} \right]_{0}^{x} = \frac{x^2}{2} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the second integral To evaluate the second integral \( \int_{0}^{x} \lfloor t \rfloor \, dt \), we need to consider the behavior of \( \lfloor t \rfloor \) over the interval \( [0, x] \). Let \( n = \lfloor x \rfloor \) (the greatest integer less than or equal to \( x \)). The integral can be computed as a sum of areas of rectangles: \[ \int_{0}^{x} \lfloor t \rfloor \, dt = \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} \int_{k}^{k+1} k \, dt + \int_{n}^{x} n \, dt \] Calculating these integrals: 1. For \( k = 0 \) to \( n-1 \): \[ \int_{k}^{k+1} k \, dt = k \cdot (1) = k \] Thus, the sum becomes: \[ \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} k = \frac{(n-1)n}{2} \] 2. For the last part from \( n \) to \( x \): \[ \int_{n}^{x} n \, dt = n(x - n) \] Putting it all together: \[ \int_{0}^{x} \lfloor t \rfloor \, dt = \frac{(n-1)n}{2} + n(x - n) = \frac{n^2 - n + 2nx - 2n^2}{2} = \frac{2nx - n^2 - n}{2} \] ### Step 5: Combine results Now we can combine the results from Step 3 and Step 4: \[ I = \frac{x^2}{2} - \left( \frac{n^2 - n + 2nx - n^2}{2} \right) = \frac{x^2}{2} - \frac{2nx - n}{2} = \frac{x^2 - 2nx + n}{2} \] ### Final Expression Thus, the final expression for the integral is: \[ I = \frac{x^2 - 2n x + n}{2} \] This can also be simplified to: \[ I = \frac{(x - n)^2}{2} \] where \( n = \lfloor x \rfloor \).
