Homework Statement



(Between 0-3) ∫x3/√(x2+9)

The Attempt at a Solution



I attempted U sub, but that didn't work. Neither did integration by parts; however, I do remember my teacher using a method involving sub'ing an "x" or something.

Anybody?

Will edit in attempts as I search YouTube for tutorials.

Are you sure that integration by parts doesn't work? I'll recommend that you try again, and perhaps show your work.

Both methods work well here. For IP, use the exact same initial step like in the problem I took you through. ehild's sub also works very well, and quickly gives you an answer.
