Indefinite Integral Help?

+2 votes
Can you help show how to solve these??
Please kindly show the steps.

1. (x^2/3) - (x^1/4) / (x^1/2) dx
2. [x(x+2)] / (x^3 + 3x^2 - 5) dx
3. (X^3)(x^4 - 4x^2 + 4)^1/2 dx
4. [(x-1)/(x^5)]^1/2 dx
5. (x^2 + 3)^1/3 (x^5) dx
6. (x^3 + 3x^2 - 9) / (x + 3)^1/2 dx

Thanks in advance!!! :)))

Solution

image

The extra C, called the constant of integration, is really necessary, since after all differentiation kills off constants , which is why integration and differentiation are not exactly inverse operations of each other.

Consider:image

Now let t2 = x + 3 then (2t)dt = dx and x = t2 - 3.

image

Integrals of rational function: ʃxndx = [xn+1/n+1]+C

image

But t2 = x + 3

image

Again consider: image

Take u2 = x + 3 then 2udu = dx

image

But u2 = x + 3 then u = √(x+3)

image

Therefore
