Example Question #31 : Antiderivatives By Substitution Of Variables
Solve:
To integrate, the following substitution is made:
Now, we rewrite the integral in terms of u and integrate:
The integral was performed using the following rule:
Finally, replace u with the original term (containing x):
Example Question #31 : Antiderivatives By Substitution Of Variables
Solve:
To integrate, we must perform the following substitution:
Next, we rewrite the integral in terms of u and integrate:
The integral was performed using the identical rule (the constant in front doesn't change the integral).
Finally, rewrite the result in terms of x:
Example Question #244 : Integrals
Integrate:
To integrate, we can split the integral into two integrals:
The first integral is equal to
and was found using the following rule:
The second integral can be made easier with the following substitution:
Now, we rewrite this integral in terms of u and integrate:
The integral was performed using the identical rule.
Next, we rewrite our answer in terms of x, and add it to the first integral's result, combining the two integration constants into a single one:
Example Question #245 : Integrals
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.

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:
Example Question #241 : Integrals
Evaluate the following indefinite integral:
First we distribute the which will allow us to break the integral up into two parts.
.
For the first integral, we use substitution of variables. Letting , we find that or that . Substituting these two equations in, we have
At this point, you can use the formula for integrating exponentials, or just recall the simple derivation for it
The second integral is simple power rule.
Combining these two expressions and substituting back in for u, we get a final answer of
Note, if you didn't distribute the at the beginning, this is fine. Substitution of variables will still work correctly. Just be careful that when you integrate you remember that this becomes u, and not x. The extra -8 you get when doing this can just be combined with the C term.
