Exercise from 9gag.com?

Problem:


http://9gag.com/gag/aVDxn1O

Solution:

Denote bottle by $ b $

$ b + b + b = 30 $, therefore $ b = 10 $.

Denote the hamburger by $ h $

$ b + h + h = 20 $, therefore $ h = 5 $

Denote the beer by $ e $

$ h + e + e = 9 $, therefore $ e = 2 $.

Now here is the fun

$ \int\limits_{2h - b}^{\infty}{\frac{b\sin x}{ex}dx} = \int\limits_{0}^{\infty}{\frac{10\sin x}{2x}dx} = 5\int\limits_{0}^{\infty}{\frac{\sin x}{x}dx} = \frac{5\pi}{2} $

The last integral is well known, for example, see:

This video explains the Feynman trick!
