009B Sample Final 1, Problem 4

Compute the following integrals.

a) $\int e^{x}(x+\sin(e^{x}))~dx$

b) $\int {\frac {2x^{2}+1}{2x^{2}+x}}~dx$

c) $\int \sin ^{3}x~dx$

Foundations:
Review $u$-substitution and
Integration by parts

Solution:

(a)

Step 1:
We first distribute to get Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle \int e^{x}(x+\sin(e^{x}))~dx=\int e^{x}x~dx+\int e^{x}\sin(e^{x})~dx} .
Now, for the first integral on the right hand side of the last equation, we use integration by parts.
Let $u=x$ and $dv=e^{x}dx$. Then, $du=dx$ and $v=e^{x}$. So, we have
Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle \int e^{x}(x+\sin(e^{x}))~dx={\bigg (}xe^{x}-\int e^{x}~dx{\bigg )}+\int e^{x}\sin(e^{x})~dx=xe^{x}-e^{x}+\int e^{x}\sin(e^{x})~dx}

Step 2:
Now, for the one remaining integral, we use $u$-substitution.

Then, Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle du=e^xdx} . So, we have
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int e^x(x+\sin(e^x))~dx=xe^x-e^x+\int \sin(u)~du=xe^x-e^x-\cos(u)+C=xe^x-e^x-\cos(e^x)+C} .

Final Answer:
(a) Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle xe^x-e^x-\cos(e^x)+C}
