SUMMARY
The integral from 0 to 1 of the function (x^2)(sqrt(9x+8))dx can be solved using integration by parts. In this method, let u = 9x + 8, leading to du = 9dx, and choose v = (x^3)/3, with dv = x^2dx. The solution involves applying the integration by parts formula [uv - integral of (vdu)], resulting in (x^3)/3 * (9x+8) minus the integral of [(x^3)/3 * 9dx]. This approach effectively simplifies the integral for evaluation.
