Answer

$\int_{0}^{3}x~f(x^2)~dx = 2$

Work Step by Step

Let $u = g(x) = x^2$ Then $g'(x) = 2x$ According to the substitution rule: $\int_{a}^{b}f(g(x))~g'(x)~dx = \int_{g(a)}^{g(b)}f(u)~du$ $\int_{0}^{3}f(x^2)~(2x)~dx = \int_{0}^{9}f(u)~du$ $2\cdot \int_{0}^{3}x~f(x^2)~dx = \int_{0}^{9}f(x)~dx$ $\int_{0}^{3}x~f(x^2)~dx = \frac{\int_{0}^{9}f(x)~dx}{2}$ $\int_{0}^{3}x~f(x^2)~dx = \frac{4}{2}$ $\int_{0}^{3}x~f(x^2)~dx = 2$
