Detail solution
  1. Rewrite the integrand:

  2. There are multiple ways to do this integral.

    Method #1

    1. Rewrite the integrand:

    2. Integrate term-by-term:

      1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

        1. Let .

          Then let and substitute :

          1. The integral of is when :

          Now substitute back in:

        So, the result is:

      1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:

        1. Let .

          Then let and substitute :

          1. The integral of is when :

          Now substitute back in:

        So, the result is:

      1. The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
