integral of x(x^2-5)

Solution

\int x (x^{2} - 5) d x

Solution

\frac{x ^{4}}{4} - \frac{5 x ^{2}}{2} + C

Solution steps

\int x (x^{2} - 5) d x

Expand

x (x^{2} - 5) : x^{3} - 5 x

= \int x^{3} - 5 x d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int x^{3} d x - \int 5 x d x

\int x^{3} d x = \frac{x ^{4}}{4}

\int 5 x d x = \frac{5 x ^{2}}{2}

= \frac{x ^{4}}{4} - \frac{5 x ^{2}}{2}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{x ^{4}}{4} - \frac{5 x ^{2}}{2} + C
