Problem Statement

Let f(x)f(x) be a continuous function defined on the interval [0,)[0,\infty) satisfying the following condition:When 2n11x<2n1,f(x)=2n1(x+1)22n2  +  2n11,\text{When } 2^{\,n-1}-1 \le x < 2^{\,n}-1,\quad f(x) = \sqrt{\,2^{\,n-1}(x+1) - 2^{\,2n-2}} \;+\; 2^{\,n-1} - 1,for n=1,2,3,n = 1, 2, 3, \ldots.Define a sequence {an}\{a_n\} by an=2n11a_n = 2^{\,n-1} - 1 for all natural numbers nn. Find the natural number nn such thatanan+1f(x)dx=14073748332216323.\int_{a_n}^{a_{n+1}} f(x)\, dx = \frac{1407374833221632}{3}.oindent

Reasoning Process

[THOUGHT] I will compute the integral over [a_n,a_{n+1}] in closed form in terms of n, set it equal to the given value, and solve for n by searching for the power-of-two parameter m=2^{n-1} using Python verification. [/THOUGHT] [PYTHON] import sympy as sp

N = sp.Integer(1407374833221632) m = sp.symbols('m', integer=True, positive=True)

Solve quadratic 5m^2 - 3m - N = 0

sol = sp.solve(sp.Eq(5m**2 - 3m - N, 0), m) print(sol)

Check which solution is a power of two

def is_power_of_two(k): return k > 0 and (k & (k-1) == 0)

for s in sol: if s.is_integer and s > 0: si = int(s) print("candidate m:", si, "power_of_two:", is_power_of_two(si))

If one is power of two, compute n

for s in sol: if s.is_integer and s > 0: si = int(s) if is_power_of_two(si): n = sp.log(si, 2) + 1 print("n =", n)

Verify integral formula directly for that n

def I(n): # I_n = (52^(2n-2) - 32^(n-1))/3 return (5sp.Integer(2)**(2n-2) - 3*sp.Integer(2)**(n-1)) / 3

for n in range(1, 80): if sp.simplify(I(n) - N/3) == 0: print("Verified n:", n, "I(n):", I(n)) break [/PYTHON]

Tool Output
[PYTHON OUTPUT] [16777216] candidate m: 16777216 power_of_two: True n = 25 Verified n: 25 I(n): 1407374833221632/3 [/PYTHON OUTPUT]
Reasoning Process

[THOUGHT] The verified solution from Python gives (m=2^{n-1}=16777216=2^{24}), hence (n=25). [ \boxed{25} ]
