question attached below

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solve \[\int\limits_{0}^{\pi} 1/(2x+\pi) dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

substitute u=2x+pi; du=2dx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@deeprony7 can you please show me the steps?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think you do this integral more or less in your head yes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ satellite yes but i mean the steps to the solution because i got a different answer to the solution answer given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have \[\int\frac{1}{u} du\] get \[\ln(u)\] and adjusting for the 2 you get \[\frac{1}{2}\ln(2x+\pi)\] unless i made a bush league mistake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry. then deeprony had the u - sub

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1/2)(ln|2∗π+π|−ln|2∗0+π|)=(1/2)(ln|3π|−ln|π|)=1/2ln(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no worries @ satellite

OpenStudy (anonymous):

put \[u=2x+\pi, dx=\frac{1}{2}du\] \[u(0)=\pi, u(\pi)=3\pi\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANKYOU @ tatiana but i'm confused at how you got the denominater of 2ln3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{2}\int _{\pi}^{3\pi} \frac{du}{u}=\frac{1}{2}\ln(u)|_{-pi}^{3\pi}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[=\frac{1}{2}(\ln(3\pi)-\ln(\pi))\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\ln(\frac{3\pi}{\pi})\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\ln(3)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I GET where 2ln(3) comes from!!!!!!!!!!!
