Answer

a) $u=3x^2-5$ $\hspace{0.4cm}du=6xdx$ b) $u=1-x$ $\hspace{0.4cm}du=-dx$ c) $u=2x^3+1$ $\hspace{0.4cm}du=6x^2dx$ d) $u=x^4$ $\hspace{0.4cm}du=4x^3dx$

Work Step by Step

a) $\int (3x^2-5)^4 2xdx$ Choose $u=3x^2-5$ $du=6xdx$ we can substitute $\frac{1}{3}du$ instead of $2xdx$. Now the integral becomes $\int \frac{u^4}{3}du$ b) $\int \sqrt{1-x} dx$ Choose $u=1-x$ $du=-dx$ we can substitute $-du$ instead of $dx$. Now the integral becomes $\int -\sqrt{u}du$ c)$\int \frac{x^2}{2x^3+1}dx$ Choose $u=2x^3+1$ $du=6x^2dx$ we can substitute $\frac{1}{6}du$ instead of $x^2dx$. Now the integral becomes $\int \frac{1}{6u}du$ d)$\int 4x^3e^{x^4}dx$ Choose $u=x^4$ $du=4x^3dx$ we can substitute $du$ instead of $4x^3dx$. Now the integral becomes $\int e^udu$
