Integrate 2x-1/36+(x-3)^2
2x-1/36(1+(x-3)^2/36) u=x-3/6 u^2=(x-3)^2/36 12u+5=(2x-6)+5 12u+5/36(1+u^2)
break in to two parts
one will give an arctangent, the other a log
assuming it is \[\int \frac{2x-1}{36+(x-3)^2}dx\]
\[\int\limits_{}^{}12u/36(1+u^2)+\int\limits_{}^{}5/36(1+u^2)\]
and yes its in this form @satellite73
Which integral will result in an inverse tangent function? Can you perform this integration? Which method would you use to integrate the other part of this integral problem?
=1/6ln(1+u^2)+5/36tan^-1(u)
I've checked and found that your first integral is fine.
Next time you want verification of correctness, please show all of your work as part of the deal.
what was your substitution for \(dx\)
Okay I am sorry, but my answer is incorrect according to the answer sheet.
So here is what i did i factored out the 36 from the denominator and used the susbtitution method where u=x-3/6 therefore u^2=(x-3)^2/36. I then rewrote the expression u=x-3/6 to be 12u+5 to cope with the numerator. 12u+5/36(1+u^2) did a split to the fraction and then integrated both 12u/36(1+u^2)+5/36(1+u^2)
if \[u=\frac{x-3}{6}\] then \[6u=x-3\] and \[6du=dx\]
Oh thanks I just realised my mistake here i forgot the du part
you also need to replace u in the end. your final answer should be a function of x
Here is my final answer after i have altered some stuff ln(1+(x-3/6)^2)+5/6tan^-1(x-3/6)
