Detail solution
  1. There are multiple ways to do this integral.

    Method #1

    1. Let .

      Then let and substitute :

      1. The integral of is when :

      Now substitute back in:

    Method #2

    1. Rewrite the integrand:

    2. Integrate term-by-term:

      1. The integral of is when :

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

        1. The integral of is when :

        So, the result is:

      1. The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:

      The result is:

  2. Now simplify:

  3. Add the constant of integration:
