U substitution quiz: 10 questions

Question 1

For \(\int 2x(x^{2}+3)^{5}\,dx\), which substitution works best?

Question 2

What is \(\int 2x(x^{2}+3)^{5}\,dx\)?

Question 3

What is \(\int e^{2x}\,dx\)?

Question 4

Converting limits.

In \(\int_{0}^{1}2x(x^{2}+1)^{3}\,dx\) with \(u=x^{2}+1\), what are the new limits?

Question 5

What is \(\int\frac{1}{x}\ln x\,dx\)?

Question 6

What is \(\int\sin(4x)\,dx\)?

Question 7

The area under x√(x² + 1).

What is \(\int_{0}^{\sqrt{3}}x\sqrt{x^{2}+1}\,dx\)?

Question 8

What is \(\int\tan x\,dx\)?

Question 9

Which technique is best for \(\int\frac{x^{2}+1}{x+1}\,dx\)?

Question 10

f(x) = 1/(x² + 1) (blue) and an antiderivative (green).

What is \(\int\frac{1}{x^{2}+1}\,dx\)?

Remember

Let u = g(x) and du = g′(x) dx, then the integral becomes the integral of f(u) du.
Adjust constant factors: if du is off by a constant, divide or multiply to compensate.
For definite integrals, change the limits to u-values or return to x before evaluating.
Use long division for improper rational functions and completing the square for irreducible quadratics.
