S6.7.1.13 natural log Integration

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the integration of the function \( \int e^{\sqrt[3]{x}} \, dx \) using integration by parts (IBP) and substitution techniques. The correct approach involves substituting \( u = x^{1/3} \), leading to \( dx = 3u^2 du \). The integration is performed twice using IBP, resulting in the final expression \( 3\left(x^{\frac{2}{3}} - 2\sqrt[3]{x} + 2\right)e^{\sqrt[3]{x}} + C \). This method is confirmed as effective by participants in the Surf the Nations math study group.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of integration techniques, specifically integration by parts (IBP).
  • Familiarity with substitution methods in calculus.
  • Knowledge of exponential functions and their properties.
  • Basic algebraic manipulation skills.
NEXT STEPS
  • Study advanced integration techniques, including multiple applications of integration by parts.
  • Explore the properties of exponential functions in calculus.
  • Practice substitution methods with various types of integrals.
  • Learn about the applications of integration in solving real-world problems.
USEFUL FOR

Students and educators in mathematics, particularly those focusing on calculus and integration techniques, as well as anyone preparing for advanced mathematics exams.

$$\displaystyle
\int e^{\sqrt[3]{x}} \, dx
= 3\left(x^\frac{2}{3}
-2\sqrt[3]{x}
+2\right){e}^\sqrt[3]{x}+C \\
u=x^{1/3} \therefore 3{x}^{\frac{2}{3}} du
= dx $$

You're on the right track...

$$u=x^{1/3},\quad u^3=x,\quad du=\dfrac13x^{-2/3}\Rightarrow3u^2du=dx$$

Now make the sub and use integration by parts twice.

u=x^{1/3} \therefore 3{u}^{2} du
= dx $$
$\text{so then we have} $
$$\displaystyle
3\int{u}^{2}e^{u} \ dx$$
$\text{looks like IBP 2 times} $

$\text{IBP 1}$
$$\displaystyle
I=3\int{u}^{2}e^{u} \ du \\
\begin{align}
{u_1} & = {u}^{2} & {dv_1}&={e}^{u} \ d{u} & \\
\frac{1}{2}{du_1}&=du& {v_1}&={e}^{u}
\end{align}$$
$\text{IBP 2}$
$$\displaystyle
I=3\left[{u}^{2}{e}^{u}-2\int u e^{u} \ du \right] \\

\begin{align}
{u_2} & = {u}^{2} & {dv_2 }&={e}^{u} \ d{u} & \\
{du_2}&=du& {v_2}&={e}^{u}
