Integration By Parts: uv-Substitution - 9.2

In summary, we discussed using substitution and tabular method to evaluate the integral $\int y^3e^{-9y} \, dx$. By substituting $z = 9y$, we were able to rewrite the integral in terms of $z$ and use integration by parts to solve it. The final result is $\frac{\left(243y^3+81y^2+18y+2\right)\mathrm{e}^{-9y}}{2187}$.

$\tiny{9.2}$
\begin{align*} \displaystyle
I&=\int y^3e^{-9y} \, dx\\
\textit{uv substitution}\\
u&=y^3\therefore \frac{1}{3}du=y^2dx\\
dv&=e^{-9y}\, dx\therefore v=e^{-9y}\\
\end{align*}
will stop there this looks like tabular method better

I moved your post to a new thread...:D

Did you intend for the integrand to be a function of $y$ while the differential is $dx$?

opps should have started a new thread
I'd start off with the substitution z = 9y. Then the original integral becomes:
\(\displaystyle \int y^3 ~ e^{-9y} ~ dy = \left ( \frac{1}{9} \right )^4 \int z^3 e^{-z}~dz\)

Now do your integration by parts.

not sure about this
\begin{array}{rcl}
u&&v\\
z^3 &+&e^{-z} \\
&↘&\\
3z^2&- &e^{-z}\\
&↘&\\
6z &+ &e^{-z} \\
&↘&\\
6&-&e^{-z}
\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}
u&&v\\
z^3 &+&e^{-z} \\
&\searrow &\\
3z^2&- &e^{-z}\\
&\searrow\\
6z &+ &e^{-z} \\
&\searrow&\\
6&-&e^{-z}
\end{array}
$\textsf{substitute $z=9y$}\\$
$$\dfrac{\left(243y^3+81y^2+18y+2\right)\mathrm{e}^{-9y}}{2187}$$

1. What is Integration By Parts?

Integration By Parts is a method used to integrate a product of two functions. It involves splitting the integrand into two parts and using the product rule of differentiation to transform it into a form that is easier to integrate.

2. What is the formula for Integration By Parts?

The formula for Integration By Parts is ∫u dv = uv - ∫v du, where u and v are the two functions being multiplied together and dv and du are their respective differentials.

3. How do you know when to use Integration By Parts?

You should use Integration By Parts when the integrand is a product of two functions and the integral cannot be solved by other methods such as substitution or trigonometric identities.

4. What is the difference between uv-Substitution and Integration By Parts?

uv-Substitution is a specific type of Integration By Parts where u is substituted for a part of the integrand that can be easily integrated, while Integration By Parts is a more general method that can be used for a wider range of integrals.

5. What are some tips for solving integrals using Integration By Parts?

Some tips for solving integrals using Integration By Parts include choosing u and dv in a strategic way, trying different combinations of u and dv if the first attempt is not successful, and using the tabular method to organize the calculations.
