say x=n+f with 0≤f<1 ⌊x⌋=n ∫_0 ^x ⌊t⌋^2 dt=Σ_(k=0) ^(n−1) ∫_k ^(k+1) ⌊t⌋^2 dt+∫_n ^x ⌊t⌋^2 dt =Σ_(k=0) ^(n−1) ∫_k ^(k+1) k^2 dt+∫_n ^x n^2 dt =Σ_(k=0) ^(n−1) k^2 +n^2 (x−n) =(((n−1)n(2n−1))/6)+n^2 (x−n) (((n−1)n(2n−1))/6)+n^2 (x−n)=2(x−1) (((n−1)n(2n−1))/6)+n^2 f=2(n+f−1) (2n^2 −n−12)(n−1)=6(2−n^2 )f n=1: f=0 ⇒x=1 n=2: (8−2−12)(2−1)=6(2−4)f f=(1/2) ⇒x=2+(1/2)=(5/2) i.e. there are two roots: x=1, (5/2).
