Hello Everyone trying to come up with a stratagey to solving this integral

Int(x^3*J3(x),x) no limits

Ive tried some integration by parts and tried breaking it down into J1 and J0's however i still get to a point where I have to integrate either : Int(x*J1(x),x) or Int(J6(x),x)

Use the following recursion relationships.

Start with the first one, and let n+1 = 3

\frac{2n}{x}\,J_n(x)\,=\,J_{n-1}(x)\,+\,J_{n+1}(x)

2\frac{dJ_n(x)}{dx}\,=\,J_{n-1}(x)\,-\,J_{n+1}(x)

\frac{dJ_0(x)}{dx}\,=\,-J_1(x)

Of course, one could use the more general derivative identity

\frac{d}{dx}[x^m J_m(x)]\,=\,x^m J_{m-1}(x)

but one should probably prove that.

Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
