integral of (2x+1)^8

\int (2 x + 1)^{8} d x

\frac{1}{18} (2 x + 1)^{9} + C

Solution steps

\int (2 x + 1)^{8} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{u ^{8}}{2} 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 u^{8} d u

Apply the Power Rule

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{u ^{9}}{9}

Substitute back

u = 2 x + 1

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

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{( 2 x + 1 ) ^{9}}{9} : \frac{1}{18} (2 x + 1)^{9}

= \frac{1}{18} (2 x + 1)^{9}

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{1}{18} (2 x + 1)^{9} + C
