HELP PLEASE integrate ((1+3sqrt(x))^4)/sqrt(x)
Hint : There is a very obvious substitution
I'm not the ebst at u substitutions but my teacher said that it would be easy if u=sqrt(x) and du=1/(2sqrt(x))
that works, but there is even a better substitution
\[\int\limits \frac{(1+3\sqrt{x})^4}{\sqrt{x}}dx\] Re writing some things makes it more easier to notice the substitution \[2 \int\limits (1+3\sqrt{x})^4 .\frac{dx}{2\sqrt{x}}\]
Can I substitute u=1+3sqrt(x)?
yes!
Infact one more step you could do \[\frac{2}{3} \int\limits (1+3\sqrt{x})^4.\frac{3dx}{2\sqrt{x}}\]
Try the substitution you were talking about
I'm confused as to what I'm supposed to do with the \[(3dx)/(2\sqrt{x})\] part.
I get that if I integrate u^4 I get (1/5)u^5 though
\[u=1+3\sqrt{x}\] Find the derivative with respect to x, you'll see why I did that shortly
Ok I get \[\frac{ 3 }{ 2\sqrt{x} }\]
\[\frac{du}{dx}=\frac{3}{2\sqrt{x}}\]\[du=\frac{3}{2\sqrt{x}}dx\]|dw:1448776991550:dw|
