Integral of (x-3)^2dx dx
The solution
Detail solution
-
There are multiple ways to do this integral.
Method #1
-
Let u=x−3.
Then let du=dx and substitute du:
∫u2du
-
The integral of un is n+1un+1 when n=−1:
∫u2du=3u3
Now substitute u back in:
3(x−3)3
Method #2
-
Rewrite the integrand:
(x−3)2=x2−6x+9
-
Integrate term-by-term:
-
The integral of xn is n+1xn+1 when n=−1:
∫x2dx=3x3
-
The integral of a constant times a function is the constant times the integral of the function:
∫(−6x)dx=−6∫xdx
-
The integral of xn is n+1xn+1 when n=−1:
∫xdx=2x2
So, the result is: −3x2
-
The integral of a constant is the constant times the variable of integration:
∫9dx=9x
The result is: 3x3−3x2+9x
-
Now simplify:
3(x−3)3
-
Add the constant of integration:
3(x−3)3+constant
The answer is:
3(x−3)3+constant
The answer (Indefinite)
