Suppose that f is a smooth function (meaning that all orders of derivatives exist and are continuous) such that f ( 0 ) = 1 , f ( 2 ) = 3 and f ′ ( 2 ) = 5 , then evaluate
∫ 0 1 x f ′ ′ ( 2 x ) d x .

Watch out for when you can apply Integration by parts. It is a necessary condition that the functions u and v are continuously differentiable.
I forgot f(0) was 1, so got 5/2 -3/4 instead, so close

Substitute 2 x = t such that :- 4 I = ∫ 0 2 t f ′ ′ ( t ) d t
Now apply integration by parts:-
4 I = [ t f ′ ( t ) ] 0 2 − ∫ 0 2 f ′ ( t ) d t [ f ( t ) ] 0 2
= 2 f ′ ( 2 ) − ( f ( 2 ) − f ( 1 ) ) = 8
⟹ I = 2
NOTE:-
∵ d t d ( f ( t ) + C ) = f ′ ( t ) ∴ ∫ f ′ ( t ) d t = f ( t ) + C ∵ d t d ( f ′ ( t ) + C ) = f ′ ′ ( t ) ∴ ∫ f ′ ′ ( t ) d t = f ′ ( t ) + C C − Arbitrary real constant
Integrating by parts, let u = x, dv = f""(2x)dx. Then du = dx, v = (1/2)f"(2x).. (1/2)xf"(2x) - (1/2)*integral of f"(2x)dx , all evaluated from o to 1 gives: (1/2)f"2) - (1/4)f(2) + (1/4)f(0) = 5/2 - 3/4 + 1/4 = 2. Ed Gray
do integration by part!
let:
u = x and d v = f ′ ′ ( 2 x )
do it once again with
u = 1 and d v = 1 / 2 f ′ ( 2 x )
if you don't want to do some tedious work, do it in tabular way!
