Question: Evaluate \(\int_{}^{}{x^{- 2/3}(1 + x^{2/3})^{- 1}dx}\)...
Evaluate ∫x−2/3(1+x2/3)−1dx
A
3tan−1(x1/3)+c
B
3tan−1x+c
C
3tan−1(x2/3)+c
D
None of these
Answer
3tan−1(x1/3)+c
Explanation
Solution
If we substitute x=t3 (as we knowP∈ negative integer)
∴Letx=tk, where k is L.C.M. of denominator m and n.
∴x=t3⇒dx=3t2dt
orI=∫t2(1+t2)3t2dt=3∫t2+1dt=3tan−1(t)+c⇒I=3tan−1(x1/3)+c.
