Evaluate the Integral

Problem

(∫_^)(e√(,x)*d(x))

Solution

1. Substitute a new variable to simplify the exponent by letting u=√(,x)

2. Differentiate the substitution to find the relationship between d(x) and d(u) where x=u2 so d(x)=2*u*d(u)

3. Rewrite the integral in terms of u to get (∫_^)(2*u*eu*d(u))

4. Apply integration by parts using the formula (∫_^)(ƒ*g′=ƒ*g−(∫_^)(ƒ′*g)) where ƒ=2*u and g′=eu

5. Calculate the parts: ƒ′=2 and g=eu leading to 2*u*eu−(∫_^)(2*eu*d(u))

6. Integrate the remaining term to get 2*u*eu−2*eu+C

7. Factor out the common terms to get 2*eu*(u−1)+C

8. Back-substitute u=√(,x) to return to the original variable.

Final Answer

(∫_^)(e√(,x)*d(x))=2*e√(,x)*(√(,x)−1)+C
