integral of x^2*sqrt(x-1)

\int x^{2} \cdot x - 1 d x

\frac{2}{7} (x - 1)^{\frac{7}{2}} + \frac{4}{5} (x - 1)^{\frac{5}{2}} + \frac{2}{3} (x - 1)^{\frac{3}{2}} + C

Solution steps

\int x^{2} x - 1 d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int (u + 1)^{2} u d u

= \int (u + 1)^{2} u d u

Expand

(u + 1)^{2} u : u^{\frac{5}{2}} + 2 u^{\frac{3}{2}} + u

= \int u^{\frac{5}{2}} + 2 u^{\frac{3}{2}} + u d u

Apply the Sum Rule:

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

= \int u^{\frac{5}{2}} d u + \int 2 u^{\frac{3}{2}} d u + \int u d u

\int u^{\frac{5}{2}} d u = \frac{2}{7} u^{\frac{7}{2}}

\int 2 u^{\frac{3}{2}} d u = \frac{4}{5} u^{\frac{5}{2}}

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

= \frac{2}{7} u^{\frac{7}{2}} + \frac{4}{5} u^{\frac{5}{2}} + \frac{2}{3} u^{\frac{3}{2}}

Substitute back

u = x - 1

= \frac{2}{7} (x - 1)^{\frac{7}{2}} + \frac{4}{5} (x - 1)^{\frac{5}{2}} + \frac{2}{3} (x - 1)^{\frac{3}{2}}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{2}{7} (x - 1)^{\frac{7}{2}} + \frac{4}{5} (x - 1)^{\frac{5}{2}} + \frac{2}{3} (x - 1)^{\frac{3}{2}} + C

\int \frac{20}{x ^{3} + x ^{2}} d x

\int x (x^{2} - 3)^{5} d x

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

\int \frac{x ^{2} + 3 x + 3}{x ^{2} - 3 x + 2} d x

\int (2 x + 5) x + 3 d x
