Options

A. `[-14,-13)`
B. `(0,1)`
C. `(-15,-14]`
D. None of these

Answer

To solve the equation

\[ \int_{0}^{2[x+14]} \frac{x}{2} \, dx = \int_{0}^{x} (x + 14) \, dx, \]

we will break it down step by step.

### Step 1: Evaluate the Right-Hand Side (RHS)

The right-hand side is

\[ \int_{0}^{x} (x + 14) \, dx. \]

This can be split into two integrals:

\[ \int_{0}^{x} x \, dx + \int_{0}^{x} 14 \, dx. \]

Calculating each integral:

1. \(\int_{0}^{x} x \, dx = \left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_{0}^{x} = \frac{x^2}{2}\).
2. \(\int_{0}^{x} 14 \, dx = 14[x] = 14x\).

Thus, the RHS becomes:

\[ \frac{x^2}{2} + 14x. \]

### Step 2: Evaluate the Left-Hand Side (LHS)

The left-hand side is

\[ \int_{0}^{2[x+14]} \frac{x}{2} \, dx. \]

Let \( a = 2[x + 14] \). The integral evaluates to:

\[ \int_{0}^{a} \frac{x}{2} \, dx = \frac{1}{2} \left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_{0}^{a} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{a^2}{2} = \frac{a^2}{4}. \]

Substituting \( a = 2[x + 14] \):

\[ \frac{(2[x + 14])^2}{4} = \frac{4([x + 14])^2}{4} = [x + 14]^2. \]

### Step 3: Set LHS Equal to RHS

Now we have:

\[ [x + 14]^2 = \frac{x^2}{2} + 14x. \]

### Step 4: Rearranging the Equation

Rearranging gives us:

\[ [x + 14]^2 - \frac{x^2}{2} - 14x = 0. \]

Let \( y = [x + 14] \). Then we can express \( x \) in terms of \( y \):

\[ y^2 - \frac{(y - 14)^2}{2} - 14(y - 14) = 0. \]

Expanding this leads to:

\[ y^2 - \frac{(y^2 - 28y + 196)}{2} - 14y + 196 = 0. \]

Multiplying through by 2 to eliminate the fraction:

\[ 2y^2 - (y^2 - 28y + 196) - 28y + 392 = 0. \]

Combining like terms:

\[ 2y^2 - y^2 + 28y - 196 - 28y + 392 = 0, \]

which simplifies to:

\[ y^2 + 196 = 0. \]

This equation does not yield real solutions, indicating that we need to check our assumptions about \( [x + 14] \).

### Step 5: Analyze the Integer Part

Since \( [x + 14] \) is an integer, let's denote it by \( n \). Thus, we have:

\[ n = [x + 14] \implies n - 14 \leq x < n - 13. \]

### Step 6: Check Possible Values of \( n \)

We can substitute possible integer values for \( n \) and check if they satisfy the original equation.

1. **For \( n = -14 \)**:
- \( x = -14 \): LHS = 0, RHS = 0.
- This is a solution.

2. **For \( n = -13 \)**:
- \( x = -13 \): LHS = 0, RHS = 0.
- This is also a solution.

### Conclusion

The values of \( x \) satisfying the equation are:

\[ x \in [-14, -13). \]
