integral of 2xsqrt(x+1)

\int 2 x x + 1 d x

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

Solution steps

\int 2 x x + 1 d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int x x + 1 d x

Apply u-substitution

= 2 \cdot \int (u - 1) u d u

Expand

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

= 2 \cdot \int 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

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

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

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

= 2 (\frac{2}{5} u^{\frac{5}{2}} - \frac{2}{3} u^{\frac{3}{2}})

Substitute back

u = x + 1

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

Add a constant to the solution

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