integral of (3x-1)^3

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

\frac{1}{12} (3 x - 1)^{4} + C

Solution steps

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

Apply u-substitution

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply the Power Rule

= \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{u ^{4}}{4}

Substitute back

u = 3 x - 1

= \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{( 3 x - 1 ) ^{4}}{4}

Simplify

\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{( 3 x - 1 ) ^{4}}{4} : \frac{1}{12} (3 x - 1)^{4}

= \frac{1}{12} (3 x - 1)^{4}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{12} (3 x - 1)^{4} + C
