Integration Help! Please guide through the steps \(\huge \sf \int\limits_{0}^{4} (6t-8)(3-8t+3t^2).dt\)

imqwerty (imqwerty):

ok 1st we need to open the brackets :)

imqwerty (imqwerty):

wait....the method with which i did it was really long but i got the answer 176 wait lemme think of a shorter one :)

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

hmmm. I can do this... but as @imqwerty is doing. I don't need to interfere. If he has trouble then I will jump in @Abhisar

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

u substitution

OpenStudy (abhisar):

You mean like this \(\sf ∫u v dx = u∫v dx −∫u' (∫v dx) dx\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Well, we know that if you have something like an abstract case below: \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} \color{red}{f'(x)}~{\rm G}\left(\color{red}{f(x)}\right)dx }\) f'(x) is just some other function that is derivative in relation to the f(x) part, then you set \(u=f(x)\) \(du=f'(x)~du\) \(x=a~~~\rightarrow~~u=f(a)\) \(x=ba~~~\rightarrow~~u=f(b)\) and you would then have: \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle \int_{f(a)}^{f(b)} {\rm G}\left(\color{red}{u}\right)du }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I meant \(du=f'(x)~dx\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

should i give ordinary, reg. example?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Yes, please c:

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle \int_{2}^{4} 2x\cdot (x^2-3)^{100}dx }\) you don't want to epand, do you? O~O you set \(u=x^2-3\) and then \(du=2x~dx\) (see how nice it is that you have that "2x" part in the integral) and when x=2, u=\((\color{red}{2}^2-3)=1\) (because u in relation to x is x²-3) and when x=4, u=\((\color{red}{4}^2-3)=13\) So you get: \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle \int_{1}^{13} (u)^{100}du }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and then the rest in that example is obvious (note, that I change the limits of integration equivalently, so you don't need to sub back the x)

OpenStudy (arindameducationusc):

I did it in a different way..... (I dont understand why it should be wrong) |dw:1440428321372:dw| I multiplied the brackets

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Please, wait....Let me digest it c:

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

|dw:1440428430105:dw|

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

take your time
