First simplify 100int_0^1x^9f(x^10)dx through the following substitution: u=x^10, so du=10x^9dx.

100int_0^1x^9f(x^10)dx=100/10int_0^1f(x^10)10x^9dx=10int_0^1f(u)du

Note that the bounds did change, but not noticeably, since 0^10=0 and 1^10=1.

Also note that int_0^1f(u)du=int_0^1f(x)dx.

So, we see the value of "....." is

"....."+100int_0^1x^9f(x^10)dx="....."+10int_0^1f(x)dx="....."+50

I'm not really sure what the "....." is supposed to stand for in the context of this problem.
