∫(e^3x)/(1+e^3x)^8

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Use u-substitution, where \(\large u = e^{3x}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Should I move the denominator up top and turn the ^8 to ^-8?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

You could do that if it helps you see what to do bette :)

OpenStudy (abb0t):

You'll have something like \(\large u^{-8}\)

OpenStudy (abb0t):

sorry, use u-sub: \(\large u = e^{3x}\)

OpenStudy (abb0t):

sorry, use u-sub: \(\large u =1+ e^{3x}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So my dx would be 3xe^4x? What's the derivative of 1+e^3x?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

\(\large du = 3e^{3x}\)

OpenStudy (abb0t):

\(\huge \frac{du}{3}\)

OpenStudy (abb0t):

That's not quite right, @cdbashir

OpenStudy (raden):

just making easier what abbot said : u = 1 + e^3x --------> e^3x = u - 1 du = 3 e^3x dx 1/3 du = e^3x dx see ur integral becomes |dw:1367214508903:dw|
