Example Question #182 : How To Find Integral Expressions

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

When integrating, remember to add one to the exponent and then put that result on the denominator: . Now evaluate at 2, and then 0. Then subtract the two results. .

Example Question #184 : Integral Expressions

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The first step here is to chop this up into three separate terms and then simplify since we have only one denominator: . Then, integrate each term, remembering to add one to the exponent and then put that result on the denominator: . Simplify to get your answer: . Remember to add C because it is an indefinite integral.

Example Question #185 : Integral Expressions

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, chop this expression up into two terms: . Then, integrate each term, remembering that when there is a single x on a denominator, the integral is . Therefore, the integration is: . Remember to add C because it is an indefinite integral.

Example Question #2263 : Calculus

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First, integrate each term separately. Remember, when integrating, raise the exponent by one and then also put that result on the denominator: . Then evaluate at 3 and then 0. Subtract two results to get: .

Example Question #184 : How To Find Integral Expressions

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To integrate this expression, I would first rewrite it to be . Then, add one to the exponent and then put that result on the denominator: . Then, simplify to get your answer of . Remember to add C because it is an indefinite integral.
