integral of 1/((2x-7)^4)

\int \frac{1}{( 2 x - 7 ) ^{4}} d x

- \frac{1}{6 ( 2 x - 7 ) ^{3}} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{1}{( 2 x - 7 ) ^{4}} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int \frac{1}{2 u ^{4}} 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 \frac{1}{u ^{4}} d u

Apply the Power Rule

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

Substitute back

u = 2 x - 7

= \frac{1}{2} (- \frac{1}{3 ( 2 x - 7 ) ^{3}})

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} (- \frac{1}{3 ( 2 x - 7 ) ^{3}}) : - \frac{1}{6 ( 2 x - 7 ) ^{3}}

= - \frac{1}{6 ( 2 x - 7 ) ^{3}}

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{1}{6 ( 2 x - 7 ) ^{3}} + C
