Example Question #1 :Substitution

集成:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This problem requires U-Substitution. Letand find.

Notice that the numerator inhas common factor of 2, 3, or 6. The numerator can be factored so that theterm can be a substitute. Factor the numerator using 3 as the common factor.

Substituteandterms, integrate, and resubstitute theterm.

Example Question #1 :Substitution

Evaluate the following integral:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To calculate this integral, we could expand that whole binomial, but it would be very time consuming and a bit of a pain. Instead, let's use u substitution:

Given this:

We can say that

Then, plug it back into our original expression

Evaluate this integral to get

Then, replace u with what we substituted it for to get our final answer. Note because this is an indefinite integral, we need a plus c in it.

Example Question #1 :Substitution

集成the following using substitution.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Using substitution, we setwhich means its derivative is.

Substitutingfor, andforwe have:

Now we just integrate:

Finally, we remove our substitutionto arrive at an expression with our original variable:
