What is t such as the definite integral of 4x^3+16 is 31 if the limits of integration are t and t+1 ?

Let f(x)= 4x^3 + 16


Let F(x)
= Int f(x)


Then we are given that F(t+1) - F(t) =
31


Let us integrate
f(x).


==> F(x)= Int 4x^3 +16 
dx


==> F(x)= x^4 +
16x


==> F(t+1)= (t+1)^4 +
14(t+1)


==> F(t) = t^4 +
16t


==> F(t+1) - F(t) =
31


==> (t+1)^4 + 16(t+1) - t^4 -16t =
31


==> (t+1)^4 + 16t + 16 - t^4 - 16t =
31


Reduce similar.


==>
t^4 + 4t^3+ 6t^2 +4t + 1 + 16t +16- t^4 - 16t =
31


==> 4t^3 + 6t^2 + 4t +1 + 16 =
31


==> 4t^3 + 6t^2 + 4t - 14 =
0


==> (t-1) ( 4t^2+10t+14) =
0


==> 2(t-1)(2t^2 +5t +7)=
0


==> t1= 1


==>
t2= ( -5 + sqrt(25-4*2*7) /2*2


            = (-5 + sqrt-31
) / 4


             = (-5/4) + sqrt31)/4 *
i


==> t2= (-5/4) - sqrt31/4
*i


Then we have 3 values for
t.


==> t= { 1, (-5/4)+sqrt31/4 *i )  
, (-5/4 - sqrt31/4 *i) }

What accomplishments did Bill Clinton have as president?

Of course, Bill Clinton's presidency will be most clearly remembered for the fact that he was only the second president ever...
