Answer

$\frac{1}{3} \leq \int_{3}^{5}\frac{1}{x+1}dx \leq \frac{1}{2}$

Work Step by Step

$3 \leq x \leq 5$ $3+1 \leq x+1 \leq 5+1$ $4 \leq x+1 \leq 6$ $\frac{1}{6} \leq \frac{1}{x+1} \leq \frac{1}{4}$ Using the property $8$ it follows: $\frac{1}{6}(5-3) \leq \int_{3}^{5}\frac{1}{x+1}dx \leq \frac{1}{4}(5-3)$ $\frac{2}{6} \leq \int_{3}^{5}\frac{1}{x+1}dx \leq \frac{2}{4}$ $\frac{1}{3} \leq \int_{3}^{5}\frac{1}{x+1}dx \leq \frac{1}{2}$
