integral of 3/((x+3)^4)

\int \frac{3}{( x + 3 ) ^{4}} d x

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{3}{( x + 3 ) ^{4}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 3 \cdot \int \frac{1}{( x + 3 ) ^{4}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

Apply the Power Rule

= 3 (- \frac{1}{3 u ^{3}})

Substitute back

u = x + 3

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

Simplify

3 (- \frac{1}{3 ( x + 3 ) ^{3}}) : - \frac{1}{( x + 3 ) ^{3}}

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

Add a constant to the solution

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