|3^xlog3dxI don't even know where to start.
I know that the formula is
|u.dv = uv - |v.du
u=3^x v=log3

You don't need by parts to do this. You can use a simple substitution.
[tex]\int 3^x ln 3 dx[/tex]
Let [itex]u = 3^x[/itex] , then [itex]du = 3^x ln 3 dx[/itex]
The integral becomes [tex]\int du[/tex] Integrate and substitute u back.
 
Log 3 is a constant, which means that dv = 0.

  1. The equation is 3^xlog3

That's what I wrote, or do you mean to say it's base 10?

it is base 10, but will it make any difference if it is base 10 or any other bases?

It will make a slight difference, using the same substitution the integral would be [itex]\log e[/itex] (base 10) which is also easily integrated as it's a constant.

But, like @vela said you should make sure it's base 10.
 
∫3×ln3.dx
u=3× dx=du/ln(3).3×
∫u.ln(3).du/ln(3).3×
ln(3) canceled each other.
∫u.du/3×
⅓×∫u.du
⅓×.u²/2
Then I would substitute u=3×
Am I right with this?

That integrand is 3 times ln(3) .

I think you mean for it to be 3x ln(3) .

After the u substitution you have that du = 3x ln(3) dx .

Thus your integral simply becomes ##\ \int du \ .##
 
Okay I got it now, u° equal 1, so the answer is 3×.
