1. Let F(x)= \int^{x}_{0} \frac{sint}{t} and f(x) = \frac{sinx}{x}. If x approaches infinity, F(x) approaches \pi/2. So, Explain what does this mean for the improper integral \int^{\infty}_{o}\frac{sinx}{x}

What is the definition of
\int_a^\infty f(x) dx[/itex]?
 
So I am guessing that \int^{\infty}_{o}\frac{sinx}{x} converges to pi/2?. The question seems straight forward but my teacher isn't that forgiving, I am thknking there's more to it?
 
Is there any reason why you called the integrand function f? You never used that definiiton in the sequel. Are you sure you copied the question correctly? As it stands it really looks somewhat like senseless:smile:
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
