lot of work to go around here so need to see if i did it right. thanks!
\int e^2xsin3xdx

Homework Equations


\int uav=uv-\int vdu


The Attempt at a Solution


\int\frac{-e^{2x}}{3}cos3x+\frac{2}{3}\int(e^{2x})cos3xdx

parts work: let u=e^2x, dv= sin3xdx
so: du=2e^2x, and v= \frac{-1}{3}cos3x

next:\int(e^{2x}cos3xdx)=\frac{e^{2x}}{3}sin3x-\frac{-2}{3}\int(e^{2x}sin3xdx)

work:let u=\frac{-e^{2x}}{3}, dv= cos3xdx, du= 2e^{2x} v= \frac{1}{3}sin3x

now: \int e^{2x}sin3xdx= \frac{-e^{2x}}{3}cos3x+\frac{2}{3}[\frac{e^{2x}}{3}sin3x-\frac{2}{3}\int e^{2x}sin3xdx]

" " "= \int e^{2x}sin3xdx+ \frac{-4}{9} \int e^{2x}sin3xdx= \frac{-e^{2x}}{3}cos3x+\frac{2}{9}e^{2x}sin3x

\frac{9}{13}\frac{13}{9}\int e^{2x}sin3xdx= [\frac{-e^{2x}}{3}cos3x+\frac{2}{9}e^{2x}sin3x]\frac{9}{13}

\int e^{2x}sin3xdx = \frac{-3}{13}e^{2x}cos3x+ \frac{2}{13}e^{2x}sin3x+C = e^{2x} [ \frac{2}{13}sin3x- \frac{3}{13}cos3x+C

ok now last: a=2 b=3

\int e^{2x}sin3xdx= \frac{1}{2^{2}+3^{2}}e^{2x}[2sin3x-3cos3x]+c= e^{2x}[\frac{2}{13}sin3x-\frac{3}{13}cos3x]+C

done. i think. we learned this a few days back and was given it to see if we can do it. it is extra work so it won't kill my grade or anything for getting it wrong, but it will help me if i can get it right. i looked it over and to me it looks fine just want to see if anyone can see if i overlooked something.

also i hope it looks right this is the 1st time i am using this sight(well used it few days back but not for anything like this)

I agree with your result, working from the general form. (This is one of those integrations-by-parts where it is very important to track your layers of integration correctly to make sure you pick up all the minus signs and multiplicative constants...)
 
I can't figure out what you are writing here:[

Where did this come from? How is this related to the original integral? If you meant to break up the original integral into 1/3 and 2/3, I should ask, why is that done?

Should be -\frac{e^{2x}}{3}sin3x instead if I'm reading it properly.

It should be -\frac{1}{3}e^{2x}cos(3x) + \frac{2}{3} \int e^{2x}cos(3x) dx. Right?

The rest is kind of too messy to follow. Probably they are erroneous since the above working is. Double check them.
 
Yes, there are a number of mistakes in the TeX lines, but dejet seems to have done the math correctly, but the result for the anti-derivative is right. (A grader, though, would certainly have taken some few points off for this...)
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
