Question #ae4e5 Calculus Introduction to Integration Definite and indefinite integrals 1 Answer Ratnaker Mehta Jan 10, 2017 # I=2x^(1/2)-3x^(1/3)+6x^(1/6)-6ln|x^(1/6)+1|+C.# Explanation: Let #I=int1/(x^(1/2)+x^(1/3))dx# Observe that, the lcm of #2 and 3# is #6#, so, we select the substitution #x=t^6," giving, "dx=6t^5dt, x^(1/2)=t^3, x^(1/3)=t^2#. #:. I=int(6t^5)/(t^3+t^2)dt=6intt^3/(t+1)dt=6int(t^3+1-1)/(t+1)dt# #=6int[(t^3+1)/(t+1)-1/(t+1)]dt=6int[t^2-t+1-1/(t+1)]dt# #=6{t^3/3-t^2/2+t-ln|t+1|}# #=2t^3-3t^2+6t-6ln|t+1|,# and as #t=x^(1/6)#, #:. I=2x^(1/2)-3x^(1/3)+6x^(1/6)-6ln|x^(1/6)+1|+C.# Enjoy Maths.! Answer link Related questions What is the difference between definite and indefinite integrals? What is the integral of #ln(7x)#?
