integral problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is it

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

\[\int\limits_{4}^{9} \frac{ lny }{ \sqrt(y) }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooo srry im not good at that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Set \(u=\sqrt y\), which gives \(u^2=y\) and \(2u\,du=dy\). \[\int_4^9\frac{\ln y}{\sqrt y}\,dy=\int_2^3\frac{\ln u^2}{u}\,du=2\int_2^3\frac{\ln u}{u}\,du\]

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

lol

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

is it okay if i set u=lny

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oops, left out a factor: \[\int\cdots dy=\int_2^3\frac{\ln u^2}{u}(2u\,du)=4\int_2^3\ln u\,du\] Sorry for the mixup

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

i got 2sqrt(Y)*lny - integral of 2Sqrt(y)*1/y dy is that right too?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Did you integrate by parts?

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright, I imagine you used \[\begin{matrix}u=\ln y&&&dv=\dfrac{dy}{\sqrt y}\\ du=\dfrac{dy}{y}&&&v=2\sqrt y\end{matrix}\] which gives \[\int_4^9\frac{\ln y}{\sqrt y}\,dy=2\left[\sqrt y\ln y\right]_4^9-2\int_4^9\frac{\sqrt y}{y}\,dy\] Yes, your method works out as well.

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

okay one more thing do the y's cancel out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, \(\dfrac{\sqrt y}{y}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt y}\).

OpenStudy (el_arrow):

okay thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

com to my question ya bafoone
