solve this ∫ 1/(√(5x+2) + √(2x+1) ) dx
No, it's all under the denominator, mihirb.
oh it is didnt notice that
yes its all in denominator
$$\int \frac{1}{\sqrt {5x + 2} + \sqrt {2x + 1}} \, dx$$
oh srry
yeah thats the question
It's a little bit weird, but u-substitution works.
yup
i tried but i m not getting it..
First, rationalize the integrand by multiplying by the conjugate of the denominator. Can you do that?
yeah
i m getting after rationalizing\[\frac{ \sqrt{5x+2} +\sqrt{2x+1} }{ 3x+3 }\]
sorry there should be -ve sign in numerator
Yes, now use partial fractions to split up the integral.
done.. then?
and 3x+1 in the denominator
No, it's -3x -1.
what i did't understand?
multiplying by conjugate in the denominator should lead to 5x+2-(2x+1) which is 3x+1 if you distribute the negative properly
Which is just the same thing as a minus sign over the whole thing, which is a minus sign in the denominator. Er, well, this is what I'm using, so go with this for clarity, it's just a sign mix-up: $$\int \frac {\sqrt {2x + 1}} {-3x - 1}\, dx - \int \frac {\sqrt {5x + 2}} {-3x - 1}\, dx$$
what after this\[\frac{ \sqrt{5x+2} }{ 3x+3 } - \frac{ \sqrt{2x+1} }{ 3x+3 }\]
okay then?
Substitute \(u = 5x + 2\) and its corresponding \(du = \frac{5}{2\sqrt {5x + 2}}\).
We're starting with that integral because it's a bit easier
if u=5x+2 then how u got the value of du?
Sorry, I meant \(u = \sqrt {5x + 2}; du = \frac {5}{2\sqrt{5x + 2}} dx\).
okay .. now i got it
then?
We have: $$-\frac{2}{5} \int \frac{u^2}{-\frac 3 5 (u^2 - 2) - 1} \, du$$ Now, just cancel out stuff with a bit of interesting manipulation. $$-\frac{2}{5} \int -\frac{5u^2}{3u^2 - 1} \, du$$
Now factor out all of those constants. Move them to other integral if you please.
What should i do now?? and what abt the other term?
@dan815 u got it wrong.. the whole expression is in denominator..
see it in one the comments..
oh ok
like this?
