which is correct whenever p > -1 and q > -1. As usual, 0! = 1, 1! = 1,
2! = 1.2, 3! = 1.2.3, 41 = 1.2.3.4, etcetera. The values of x! when x is not an
integer are more esoteric, but x! > 0 when x > -1. Put p = q = 0 and dis-
cover that(--cT)! = a. Show that the formula is correct when p = q = 1.
put p = q = 2 and discover that ()! = V/2. Put p = 2x - 1 and q = 1
and use the result to prove that x! is the product of x and (x - 1)!.

the middle integral being a Riemann-Cauchy integral because the integrand is
undefined when 0 = 0, show that

Then prove the first of the inequalities

and use it to obtain the second.
8 Let a and b be constants for which a = 0 and b = 1 or a = 1 and b = 0
and let x > 0. Show that
-15acosx+bsin xS1.

Replace x by t and integrate over the interval 0 <= t x to obtain

-xS asinx-b(cosx-1) Sx.


Replace x by t and integrate over the interval 0 5 t =< x to obtain
