Integration.
\[\int\limits_{}^{}e^\sqrt[3]{x}\]
I have a bunch of tools I could use, i'm just not sure which to apply here?
start with u sub
then do by parts
put \[x ^{\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }}=y,x=y^3,dx=3y^2dy\] \[\int\limits e \sqrt[3]{x}dx=3 \int\limits y^2e^ydy+c\] integrate by parts
so my usub would be u=x^(1/3) ?
yes
\[du=\frac{ 1 }{ x }x^{-2/3}\]
dx
oo yes that is what I meant.
but then what? o.0
\[\large\rm du=\frac{1}{3}x^{-2/3}dx\qquad\to\qquad 3x^{2/3}du=dx\]Or written like this,\[\large\rm 3(x^{1/3})^2du=dx\]Do you see how you can make use of your \(\large\rm u\) here?
I can just put 3(u)^2 ?
\[\int\limits_{}^{}e^u*3u^2du\]
Yessss, good.
Then for integration by parts we choose \[u=e^u\]\[dv=3u^2du\]
hmm or maybe not because then we got another weird integration
We want to "destroy" the polynomial portion, right? Break it down? So that should be our u. Wow you should have used a different letter for your first substitution. I would recommend using M and N for your parts maybe.
haha ok and..I forget the antiderrivative of e^u. is that just e^u?
yes :)
\[e^u*3u^2-\int\limits_{}^{}e^u*6udu\] then we must do it again?
Mmmm good.
ya, another round of parts.
\[e^u*3u^3-6e^u*u+6e^u\]
Would be the final answer? +C
Close to final answer, yes. *cough cough* Undo your sub.
oh my. The u from the very beginning o.o heh I forgot.
\[3e^\sqrt[3]{x}*(\sqrt[3]{x})^2-6e^\sqrt[3]{x}*\sqrt[3]{x}+6e^\sqrt[3]{x}+C\]oh..I could have simplified that a whole lot.
but is that it?
Yes, good job :)
Wolfram confirms: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=integral+of+e%5E(x%5E1%2F3) They did a little bit of fancy factoring, that's why theirs looks a tad different.
yaaay! So for e, do you think it's usually wisest to start with a u sub? just typically
Bahh I dunno :)
haha ok :)
thanks!!
