Find the indefinite integral.
dx
- 8
Step 1
In this situation, finding the indefinite integral is most easily achieved using the method of integration by
substitution.
The first step in this method is to let u =
function" of a composite function f(g(x)).
g(x), where g(x) is part of the integrand and is usually the "inside
For the given indefinite integral
dx, observe that the integrand involves the function x5
8. This is
x5
- 8
8, then g'(x) will involve a term containing x“,
not a composite function, but we note that if we let g(x)
which will allow us to easily write the integral in terms of only u after the substitution.
Therefore, we will choose u =
x5.
8
Step 2
The next step is to find du = g'(x) dx. First find g'(x).
g(x)
= X
- 8
g'(x)
Therefore, we have the following.
du =
dx
