I need to find the arc length of the function f(x) = 4/5*X5/4 from [0,4].
You have to find f '(x) first and that would be X1/4
I square f '(x) and obtain X1/2 or [tex]\sqrt{X}[/tex]
I plug it into the formula and get
S = [tex]\int[/tex][tex]\sqrt{1+\sqrt{X}}[/tex] from [0,4]
I don't know how to evaluate the integral from here though
