Hi Lui :)

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Yes I still need help please >.< Last one closed.. http://prntscr.com/3ekqa9 But you sure a u-sub would work?

hartnn (hartnn):

yes! whenever there is a linear expression within \(\large \sqrt[n]{linear}\) we substitute u = linear expression

hartnn (hartnn):

after the substitution, you just need to separate the denominator :)

hartnn (hartnn):

did you try it ?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

OS is still lagging for me, sorry. And I have never done a problem like this before so I don't really follow :/

hartnn (hartnn):

ok, never substituted in an integral ?? we need to replace every 'x' by a 'u' so wherever you see x, replace it by 'u-9' also, find du

hartnn (hartnn):

u = x+9 thats why x = u-9 and du =...?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

I've done sub before.. \(u=x+9\) and \(du=dx\) Leaving us with \(\Large \int \frac{x}{\sqrt{u}} du\)?

hartnn (hartnn):

not actually, as i said, we need to replace EVERY 'x' by a u after there substitution, there should not by any 'x' left.

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

OH, now I see what you mean! \(\Large \int \frac{u-9}{\sqrt[4]{u}} du\)?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

OS is switching the replies .-.
