To find the arc length of the function ( f(x) = e^{x^2 - x} ) on the interval ([0, 15]), we use the formula for arc length of a function ( f(x) ) on an interval ([a, b]):
[ L = \int_a^b \sqrt{1 + (f'(x))^2} , dx ]
First, we find the derivative of ( f(x) ) using the chain rule:
[ f'(x) = (2x - 1)e^{x^2 - x} ]
Then, we plug this derivative into the arc length formula:
[ L = \int_0^{15} \sqrt{1 + (2x - 1)^2e^{2(x^2 - x)}} , dx ]
This integral can be difficult to solve analytically. You may need to use numerical methods or software to approximate the value of the integral.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
