\[\frac{ x }{ \sqrt{5+4x} }dx\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let u =x and dv = (5+4x)^(-1/2) dx
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I did that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So the anti derivative of (5+4x)^(-1/2)is 2(5+4x)^1/2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yup

Hold on
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1/2 not 2 in the front. hehehe
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sorry why 1/2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Is it 2 divided by 4 because of the 4x?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\int \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5+4x}}dx\]
let u = 5+4x --> du = 4dx--> dx = du/4
\[\int \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{5+4x}}dx =\dfrac{1}{4}\int u^{-1/2} du = \dfrac{1}{4}*2\sqrt u= \dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{5+4x} \]

So that would become \[\frac{ 2 }{ 9 }(5+4x)^{3/2}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Soory not 4/9 but 1/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that is v, right?
so that you have
u = x dv = ...
du = dx v = \(\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt {5+4x}\)
now combine to get
\(uv -\int vdu\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[2x*(5+4x)^{1/2}-1/3(5+4x)^{3/2}+C\]
