Integration by substitution can be used for a variety of integrals: some compound functions, some products and some quotients. Sometimes we have a choice of method.
1. Method: We must substitute for x and dx. Define u as the inner function Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function . . . Find dx by treating like a fraction
1. Method: We must substitute for x and dx. Define u as the inner function Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function . . . and dx
1. Method: We must substitute for x and dx. Define u as the inner function Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function . . . and dx
1. Method: We must substitute for x and dx. Define u as the inner function Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function . . . and dx Integrate: Replace u:
1. Method: We must substitute for x and dx. Define u as the inner function Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function . . . and dx Integrate: Replace u:
1. Method: We must substitute for x and dx. Define u as the inner function Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function . . . and dx Integrate: Replace u:
The “Thinking Method” 2. We have already met this type of integral. See if you can do it. Solution: Reversing the Chain Rule gives This is an example of a problem that could be done both ways.
3. Do we have the derivative of the inside “lurking around”?
Cancel the extra x 3. Define u as the inner function: Let Differentiate: Substitute for the inner function and dx Cancel the extra x
So, where Integrate: Substitute back:
Definite integration We work in exactly the same way BUT we must also substitute for the limits, since they are values of x and we are changing the variable to u. A definite integral gives a value so we never return to x.
Exercises 5. 4. Give exact answers.
4. Solutions: Let Limits: You can change the limits and keep “u” or “u-sub” back to “x” once you integrate & keep the original limits. “x” limits “u” limits
Solutions: 4. Let Limits: So You can change the limits and keep “u” or “u-sub” back to “x” & keep the original limits. So
5. Let Limits: So, We can use the log laws to simplify this.
