integral of 1/((x-4)^4)

\int \frac{1}{( x - 4 ) ^{4}} d x

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

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{( x - 4 ) ^{4}} d x

Apply u-substitution

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

Apply the Power Rule

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

Substitute back

u = x - 4

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

Add a constant to the solution

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