Can someone check my answer?
integral (((2+sqrt(x))^6))/(sqrt (x))) dx = ?
My answer is either (2/7) (2+x^(1/2))^7 + C or none of these (from other given options).
Here's why I have a problem: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%28integral+%28%28%282%2Bsqrt%28x%29%29%5E6%29%2F%28sqrt%28x%29%29%29dx%29+%3D+%282%2F7%29+%282%2Bx%5E%281%2F2%29%29%5E7
Does the +256/7 make it none of the above?
@dumbcow
you mean that: \[\int \frac{(2+\sqrt{x})^6 dx}{\sqrt{x}}\] ?
yes
Ok, do this: \[u=\sqrt{x} \Rightarrow du = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}dx\]
then we got: \[2\int (2+u)^6 du\]
now, if you still can't see the result, do this: \(v = 2+u \Rightarrow dv = du\), so \[2\int v^6 dv = \frac{2}{7}v^7 + c =\frac{2}{7}(2+u)^7 +c= \frac{2}{7}(2+\sqrt{x})^7 +c \]
Got it?
Hint: you always substitute unti you get a simple integral you can evaluate.
Yes so I guess I was right, it was not none of these.
