Answer

$\dfrac{85e^4-25}{16}$

Work Step by Step

$I=\int_{2}^{5} te^{4/3(t-2)}\sqrt {{(\dfrac{dx}{dt})^{2}}+{(\dfrac{dy}{dt})^{2}}}dt=\int_{2}^{5} te^{4/3(t-2)}\sqrt {1^2+{(\dfrac{4}{3})^{2}}}dt$ $=\int_{2}^{5} te^{4/3(t-2)}(\dfrac{5}{3})dt$ $=(\dfrac{5}{3})[(3t/4)e^{4/3(t-2)}-\dfrac{3}{4} \int e^{4/3(t-2)}dt]$ $=(\dfrac{5}{3})[(3t/4)e^{4/3(t-2)}-\dfrac{9}{16} e^{4/3(t-2)}dt+K]$ $=(\dfrac{5}{3})[(15/4)e^{4/3(5-2)}-\dfrac{9}{16} e^{4/3(5-2)}]-(\dfrac{5}{3})[(6/4)e^{4/3(2-2)}-\dfrac{9}{16} e^{4/3(2-2)}]$ $= \dfrac{85e^4-25}{16}$
