Parametric curve length - calculus
$begingroup$
Find the length of the following parametric curve.
$x = 5 + frac92 t^3$, $y = 4 + 3 t^{frac92}$, $0 leq t leq 2$.
I used integration and after some point I got lost :( What are the steps?

Is this $$x=5+frac{9}{2}t^3,y=4+3t^{9/2}$$?

Apply the formula for arc length, we get
$$
int_0^2 frac{27{{t}^{2}},sqrt{{{t}^{3}}+1}}{2} dt
$$
Then we make the change of variable $v=t^3+1$ to get
$$
int_1^9 frac 9 2 sqrt{v} dv = 78.

Made the leap from the third line to the fourth line by recognizing that $F(t)=3(1+t^3)^{frac32}$ is an antiderivative of $f(t)=frac{27}2t^2(1+t^3)^{frac12}$.

You must use the formula $$int_{0}^{2}sqrt{left(frac{dx}{dt}right)^2+left(frac{dy}{dt}right)^2}dt$$
$$dx=frac{9}{2}3t^2dt$$ and $$dy=3cdot frac{9}{2}t^{7/2}dt$$

You must use the formula $$int_{0}^{2}sqrt{left(frac{dx}{dt}right)^2+left(frac{dy}{dt}right)^2}dt$$
$$dx=frac{9}{2}3t^2dt$$ and $$dy=3cdot frac{9}{2}t^{7/2}dt$$
