integral from 0 to 2 of (2x)/((x^2+4)^3)

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{2 x}{( x ^{2} + 4 ) ^{3}} d x

\frac{3}{128}

Decimal

0.0234375

Solution steps

\int_{0}^{2} \frac{2 x}{( x ^{2} + 4 ) ^{3}} d x

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \int_{0}^{2} \frac{x}{( x ^{2} + 4 ) ^{3}} d x

Apply u-substitution

= 2 \cdot \int_{4}^{8} \frac{1}{2 u ^{3}} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} \cdot \int_{4}^{8} \frac{1}{u ^{3}} d u

Apply the Power Rule

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} [- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}]_{4}^{8}

Simplify

2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} [- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}]_{4}^{8} : [- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}]_{4}^{8}

= [- \frac{1}{2 u ^{2}}]_{4}^{8}

Compute the boundaries:

\frac{3}{128}

= \frac{3}{128}
