integration

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int\limits_{1}^{2}(x-1)\sqrt{2-x } dx\]

hartnn (hartnn):

did you try substituting u= 2-x ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i didn't

hartnn (hartnn):

one question at a time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok sorry

hartnn (hartnn):

then try it now!

hartnn (hartnn):

u = 2-x du = ... new upper limit = ... new lower limit = ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

du=-dx new upper limit=-1 new lower limit =1 right?

hartnn (hartnn):

when x = 2 u = 2-x = 2-2 = 0 how u got -1 ?

hartnn (hartnn):

oh, you took limits of 2nd integration ? :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry i took the limit of the second one lol

hartnn (hartnn):

so whats your new integral look like ?

Miracrown (miracrown):

hmm alright, maybe we can start by distributing out the x-1 |dw:1399196251540:dw| so the second part we can do fairly easy with a u substitution are you familiar with that technique?
