#tag_title# Solution #tag_content# The solution to the given integral is: $$2((1 - \sqrt{x}) - \frac{1}{3}(1 - \sqrt{x})^3) + C$$

Step by step solution

01

Perform substitution

Let \(u = 1 - \sqrt{x}\). Then, we will differentiate both sides with respect to x: $$\frac{d u}{d x} = -\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$$ Now, we will solve for \(\frac{dx}{du}\): $$\frac{d x}{d u} = -2\sqrt{x}$$ We can express the x-term in the numerator with u by solving for x in terms of u: $$x = (1 - u)^2$$ Now, we rewrite the integral in terms of u:
02

Rewrite in terms of u

Substituting the expressions derived above, the integral becomes: $$\int \frac{1 - (1 - u)^2}{u} (-2\sqrt{(1 - u)^2}) d u$$ Simplify the integrand:
03

Simplify the integrand

The integrand simplifies to: $$\int 2 (1 - u^2) d u$$ Now, we will integrate with respect to u:
04

Integrate with respect to u

Integrating the expression, we get: $$2 \int (1 - u^2) d u = 2(u - \frac{1}{3} u^3) + C$$ where C is the constant of integration.
05

Substitute back x

Substitute the original expression for u back, that is, \(u = 1 - \sqrt{x}\): $$2((1 - \sqrt{x}) - \frac{1}{3}(1 - \sqrt{x})^3) + C$$ Finally, to get the solution of the given integral, simplify the above expression.

The following integrals require a preliminary step such as long division or a change of variables before using partial fractions. Evaluate these integrals. $$\int \frac{d x}{e^{x}+e^{2 x}}$$

An integrand with trigonometric functions in the numerator and denominator can often be converted to a rational integrand using the substitution \(u=\tan (x / 2)\) or \(x=2 \tan ^{-1} u .\) The following relations are used in making this change of variables. $$A: d x=\frac{2}{1+u^{2}} d u \quad B: \sin x=\frac{2 u}{1+u^{2}} \quad C: \cos x=\frac{1-u^{2}}{1+u^{2}}$$ $$\text { Evaluate } \int \frac{d x}{1+\sin x}$$
