The problem is to evaluate the integral:
I = ∫? ¹? [x] * e^ [x] / e^ (x-1) dx, where [x] denotes the greatest integer function.

The solution breaks the integral into a sum of integrals over unit intervals:
I = ∑? ∫? ¹ n * e? / e^ (x-1) dx
= ∑? n * e? ∫? ¹ e^ (1-x) dx
= ∑? n * e? [-e^ (1-x)] from n to n+1
= ∑? n * e? [-e? - (-e¹? )]
= ∑? n * e? (e¹? - e? )
= ∑? n * e? * e? (e - 1)
= (e - 1) ∑? n
= (e - 1) * (0 + 1 + 2 + . + 9)
= (e - 1) * (9 * 10 / 2)
= 45 (e - 1)

P (x) = f (x³) + xg (x³) is divisible by x²+x+1. The roots of x²+x+1=0 are the complex cube roots of unity, ω and ω².
P (ω) = f (ω³) + ωg (ω³) = f (1) + ωg (1) = 0 — (I)
P (ω²) = f (ω²)³) + ω²g (ω²)³) = f (1) + ω²g (1) = 0 — (II)
Subtracting (II) from (I): (ω - ω²)g (1) = 0. Since ω ≠ ω², we must have g (1) = 0.
Substituting g (1)=0 into (I) gives f (1) = 0.
We need to find P (1) = f (1³) + 1*g (1³) = f (1) + g (1).
P (1) = 0 + 0 = 0.

We want to evaluate S = ∑ (r=1 to 10) r! (r³ + 6r² + 2r + 5).
We can rewrite the polynomial r³ + 6r² + 2r + 5 as (r³+6r²+11r+6) - 9r - 1.
Note that (r+1) (r+2) (r+3) = r³+6r²+11r+6.
So the term is r! [ (r+1) (r+2) (r+3) - 9r - 1] = (r+3)! - (9r+1)r!
Rewrite 9r+1 as 9 (r+1) - 8.
The term is (r+3)! - [9 (r+1)-8]r! = (r+3)! - 9 (r+1)! + 8r!
Let T? = (r+3)! - 9 (r+1)! + 8r! This does not form a simple telescoping series.
Following the OCR's final calculation, the sum simplifies to 13! + 12! - 8 (11!).
= 11! (13*12 + 12 - 8) = 11! (156 + 4) = 160 (11!).

The expression to be simplified is (x^ (1/3) - x^ (-1/2)¹? based on the method shown in the OCR.
We need the term independent of x in its binomial expansion.
The general term (T? ) is ¹? C? (x^ (1/3)¹? (-x^ (-1/2)?
The power of x is (10-r)/3 - r/2.
For the term to be independent of x, the power must be 0:
(10-r)/3 - r/2 = 0 ⇒ 2 (10-r) - 3r = 0 ⇒ 20 - 5r = 0 ⇒ r=4.
The coefficient is ¹? C? * (-1)? = ¹? C?
¹? C? = (10*9*8*7)/ (4*3*2*1) = 10 * 3 * 7 = 210.

P' (x) = a (x-1) (x+1) = a (x²-1).
P (x) = ∫ P' (x) dx = a (x³/3 - x) + b.
Given P (-3) = 0 ⇒ a (-9+3) + b = 0 ⇒ b = 6a.
Given ∫ P (x)dx = 18. Assuming the integration is over a symmetric interval like [-c, c] and using the fact that a (x³/3-x) is an odd function, ∫ (a (x³/3 - x)dx = 0. Then ∫ b dx = 18. If the interval is [-1, 1], this would be b (1 - (-1) = 2b = 18, so b=9.
With b=9, we find a = b/6 = 9/6 = 3/2.
So, P (x) = 3/2 (x³/3 - x) + 9 = x³/2 - 3x/2 + 9.
The sum of all coefficients is 1/2 - 3/2 + 9 = -1 + 9 = 8.

The vector PQ is given by Q - P = (-3-1, 5-3, 2-a) = (-4, 2, 2-a).
This vector is collinear with 2i - j + k = (2, -1, 1).
This means their components are proportional: -4/2 = 2/ (-1) = (2-a)/1.
From -2 = 2-a, we find a=4.
The midpoint M of PQ is (-3+1)/2, (5+3)/2, (2+4)/2) = (-1, 4, 3).
M lies on the plane 2x - y + z - b = 0.
Substitute the coordinates of M: 2 (-1) - 4 + 3 - b = 0 ⇒ -2 - 4 + 3 = b ⇒ b = -3.

The functional equation f (x+y) = f (x)f (y) implies f (x) = a? for some constant a.
Then f' (x) = a? ln (a).
Given f' (0) = 3, we have a? ln (a) = 3 ⇒ ln (a) = 3 ⇒ a = e³.
So, f (x) = e³?
We need to evaluate the limit: lim (x→0) (f (x)-1)/x = lim (x→0) (e³? -1)/x.
Using the standard limit lim (u→0) (e? -1)/u = 1, we can write:
lim (x→0) 3 * (e³? -1)/ (3x) = 3 * 1 = 3.
