45. \int \cos ^{5}(x) \mathrm{dx}

47. \int x^{2} \cos (x) \mathrm{dx}


49. Before doing any calculations, predict which do you expect to be larger; the average value of \sin (x) or of \sin ^{2}(x) on the interval [0, \pi]? Then calculate each average to see if your prediction was correct.

51. Find the average value of \mathrm{f}(x)=\ln (x) on the interval 1 \leq x \leq C when C=e, 10,100,200

53. Before doing any calculations, predict which of the following integrals you expect to be the largest?

(a) \int_{1}^{2} e^{x} d x (b) \int_{1}^{2} x \mathrm{e}^{x} \mathrm{dx} (c) \int_{1}^{2} x^{2} e^{x} d x Then calculate the value of each integral.

55. Evaluate \int_{0}^{\mathrm{C}} \frac{2}{1+x^{2}} \mathrm{dx} fo \mathrm{C}=1,10,20, \text { and } 30 . Before doing the calculation, estimate the value of the integral when C = 40.
