Integrate the following function: f(x) = 8x^3 + 1/x + 5

We can see that the function is a sum of three terms so we can deal with each term separately and add them up. The term 8x 3 and 5 are relatively straightforward and follow the standard rules for integration...

Using the substitution of u=6x+5 find the value of the area under the curve f(x)=(2x-3)(6x+%)^1/2 bounded between x=1 and x=1/2 to 4 decimal places.

dx=du/6 => (u-5)/6=x So the integral is now (2((u-5)/6)-3)(u^1/2) du/6 Which through simplifying becomes (1/36)(2u-28)(u^1/2)du = (1/36)(2u^3/2 -28u^1/2)du After integrating becomes (1/36)(4(u^5/2)/5 -56(...

Integration by parts: Integrate the expression x.ln(x) between 1 and 2.

Let $ denote the integral symbol, as I am limited here by my keyboard. Recall the formula for integration by parts: $ u.(dv/dx) dx = uv - $ u(dv/dx) dx So to find $ pi 0 x.sin(x) dx, we must allocate x and s...
