integral of (2x+1)^{-3}

integral

(2 x + 1)^{- 3}

- \frac{1}{4 ( 2 x + 1 ) ^{2}} + C

Solution steps

\int (2 x + 1)^{- 3} d x

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

= \int \frac{1}{( 2 x + 1 ) ^{3}} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{2 u ^{3}} d u

= \int \frac{1}{2 u ^{3}} d u

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{3}} d u

Apply the Power Rule

: - \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}

= \frac{1}{2} (- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}})

Substitute back

u = 2 x + 1

= \frac{1}{2} (- \frac{1}{2 ( 2 x + 1 ) ^{2}})

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} (- \frac{1}{2 ( 2 x + 1 ) ^{2}}) : - \frac{1}{4 ( 2 x + 1 ) ^{2}}

= - \frac{1}{4 ( 2 x + 1 ) ^{2}}

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{4 ( 2 x + 1 ) ^{2}} + C

\frac{1}{( 9 x ^{2} + 4 )}

y = \frac{1}{x ^{\frac{1}{2}}}

(\frac{1}{2})^{x}

\frac{e ^{2} x - 1}{e ^{2} x + 1}

3 x + 1
