integral from 1 to 5 of 1/(sqrt(2x-1))

\int_{1}^{5} \frac{1}{2 x - 1} d x

2

Solution steps

\int_{1}^{5} \frac{1}{2 x - 1} d x

Apply u-substitution

= \int_{1}^{9} \frac{1}{2 u} 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_{1}^{9} \frac{1}{u} d u

Apply the Power Rule

= \frac{1}{2} [2 u^{\frac{1}{2}}]_{1}^{9}

Apply radical rule:

= \frac{1}{2} [2 u]_{1}^{9}

Compute the boundaries:

4

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot 4

Simplify

= 2
