Can anyone help me with the process for integration by parts please?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits f(x) g'(x) dx = f(x) g(x) - \int\limits f'(x)g(x) dx\] Integral must involve a product that can be written f g'. Choose g' to be a function for which you can find g. The resulting integral should be simpler than the integral you started with.

Following up from above. You should pick a u that you can easily integrate and a dv that you can easily integrate. This should make the integral easier. A good example of an integral to use by parts on is: \[\int\limits x \sin(x)dx=-x \cos(x)+\int\limits \cos(x)dx=-x \cos(x)+\sin(x)+C\] See if you can work that one out.
