Answer

$f(t)=\displaystyle \frac{t^{4}}{12}-\ln|t|+\frac{8}{3}t+\ln 2-\frac{11}{3}$

Work Step by Step

$f''(t)=t^{2}+t^{-2}$ Using the antiderivatives table, $f'(t)=\displaystyle \frac{t^{3}}{3}+\frac{t^{-1}}{-1}+C=\frac{1}{3}t^{3}-\frac{1}{t}+C$ Given that $f'(1)=2$ it follows that $\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}(1)-1+C=2$ $C=\displaystyle \frac{8}{3}$ $f'(t)=\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}t^{3}-\frac{1}{t}+\frac{8}{3}$ Using the antiderivatives table, $f(t)=\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}\cdot\frac{t^{4}}{4}-\ln|t|+\frac{8}{3}t+D$ $f(t)=\displaystyle \frac{t^{4}}{12}-\ln|t|+\frac{8}{3}t+D$ Given that $f(2)=3$ it follows that $3=\displaystyle \frac{2^{4}}{12}-\ln|2|+\frac{8}{3}(2)+D$ $3=\displaystyle \frac{4}{3}-\ln 2+\frac{16}{3}+D$ $D=3-\displaystyle \frac{20}{3}+\ln 2=\ln 2-\frac{11}{3}$ $f(t)=\displaystyle \frac{t^{4}}{12}-\ln|t|+\frac{8}{3}t+\ln 2-\frac{11}{3}$
