Integrate:
To integrate, the following substitution was made:
Now, we rewrite the integral in terms of u and integrate:
The following rule was used for integration:
Finally, rewrite the final answer in terms of our original x term:

Re-write the integrand as follows:
Make the following substitution:
Apply the substitution to the integrand:

Re-substitute the value of u:
Solution:
Integrate:
To integrate, we can split the integral up (the property of linearity allows us to do this):
The first integral is equal to
and was found using the following rule:
The second integral can be solved after the following substitution is made:
Rewriting the integral in terms of u and integrating, we get
The integral was solved using the identical rule.
Next, rewrite the answer in terms of x:
Finally, add this to the first result to get our final answer:
Note that all of the integration constants were combined to make a single constant.
We are going to use U-substitution
Looking at the original
Let
Then
And now we can use our anti derivative rules (don't forget your constant!)
Finally, substitute back in for u
Calculate the following integral:
Solve by u substitution
Make the following substitution:
Apply the substitution the integral:
Solve the integral:
Re-substitute the value for u:
Evaluate the integral
Evaluating integrals requires knowledge of the basic integral forms. In this problem, there is a group raised to an exponent, which is the .
This arrangement typically follows the basic integral form , where
is a variable expression,
is some constant number and
is the constant of integration, which stays unknown. In this case, we can use u-substitution to match this form.
The exponent is 5, so the in the basic integral form will be5.
Since the inside of the exponent group is , set
.
Now we differentiate to find
. Recall that the derivative of
.
Notice that the parts of our match up with the integral we are evaluating, and there are no variables that aren't accounted for. This is clearer if we write out and simplify what our substitution says.
This is exactly what we are asked to integrate.
This means we can evaluate the integral by using basic integral form directly. Plugging in our and
into the right side of
, we get
This is equivalent to the answer , which is the correct answer.
Evaluate the integral
Not integrable
There are a lot of pieces inside this integral. There are trigonometry functions, exponential functions, and a rational arrangement. Lots of possibilities.
This is where u-substitution is best. Try making u represent various parts and see if du gets all the other parts. After doing this enough times, you will see that we should make u be the exponent of the e.
Let's write the inner fraction as an x with a negative exponent
Now we differentiate and see what we get for du. This will require the chain rule. The outer structure is the , which requires trig functions integration rules, and the chained inner structure is a power rule arrangement
Recall these derivatives:
Applying these we get
Simplifying gives us
This perfectly matches all remaining parts of our integral. Lets rewrite everything using u and du
This matches the basic integral form,
Thus, when we integrate we get
Rewriting back in terms of x, we get
This is our answer.

To integrate, the following substitution must be made:
Now, we rewrite the integral in terms of u and integrate:
The following integration rule was used:
To finish, we replace u with our original x term:

To integrate, the following substitution was made:
Now, rewrite the integral in terms of u and integrate:
