please show steps thanks in advance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[u=3+x^4\] \[du=4x^3 dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes and thank what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*than

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{4}\int{u^5}du\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait how did you get 1/4 from? and x^5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok never mind i know the u^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what did you do to get 1/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

As stated above, as \(u = 3+x^4\) then you have \[\frac{du}{dx}=4x^3\] or if you rearrange you have that \[du=4x^3 dx\] which gives you that \[x^3dx=\frac{1}{4}du\] So with this substitution that leaves you with \[\int x^3(3+x^4)^5 dx=\int x^3 (u)^5 dx = \int \frac{1}{4} u^5 du\] Now integrate with respect to u and get an answer. Then the last step is to take that answer, and any where u appears, replace it by what you substituted it for \(u=3+x^4\)

ok thanks ill take it from here
