If ∫f(x)dx=Ψ(x), then ∫x5f(x3)dx is equal to:
A. 31x3Ψ(x3)−3∫x3Ψ(x3)dx+C
B. 31x3Ψ(x3)−∫x2Ψ(x3)dx+C
C. 31[x3Ψ(x3)−∫x3Ψ(x3)dx]+C
D. 31[x3Ψ(x3)−∫x2Ψ(x3)dx]+C
Solution
Solve by integrating the given expression in parts: ∫f(x)g(x)dx=f(x)∫g(x)dx−∫[f′(x)∫g(x)dx]dx. Make an appropriate substitution. If we substitute x = f(t), then
dx = f′(t) dtand ∫f(x)dx=∫f[f(t)]f′(t)dt.
Substitute x3=t and integrate by parts.
Recall that dxdxn=nxn−1 and that if ∫f(x)dx=g(x), then ∫f(y)dy=g(y).
Complete step by step Solution:
Let's say I=∫x5f(x3)dx, which can also be written as:
⇒I=∫x3.x2f(x3)dx
Substituting x3=t, we have 3x2dx=dt.
And, I=31∫tf(t)dt.
Integrating by parts, taking t as the first function and f(t) as the second function, we get:
⇒I=31[t∫f(t)dt−∫(dtdt∫f(t)dt)dt]+C
Differentiating ‘t’ w.r.t. ‘t’, we get ‘1’; so
⇒I=31[t∫f(t)dt−∫(∫f(t)dt)dt]+C
It is given that ∫f(x)dx=Ψ(x)
On Substituting value in equation, we get;
⇒I=31[tΨ(t)−∫Ψ(t)dt]+C
Back substituting x3=t, we have 3x2dx=dt, we get:
⇒I=31[x3Ψ(x3)−∫Ψ(x3)(3x2)dx]+C
⇒I=31x3Ψ(x3)−∫x2Ψ(x3)dx+C
Hence, the correct answer is B. 31x3Ψ(x3)−∫x2Ψ(x3)dx+C.
Note: integration by parts or partial integration is a process that finds the integral of a product of functions in terms of the integral of the product of their derivative and antiderivative. When integrating by parts:
∫f(x)g(x)dx = f(x)∫g(x)dx − ∫[f′(x)∫g(x)dx]dx, make sure to select the functions f(x) and g(x) in such a manner that we can integrate the derivative of the first function f(x) easily. Usually, it's better to follow the rule of ILATE when selecting the first and the second functions.

Application of Integrals are very important. Integrals are used to find the area under the curve and we can solve differential equations using integration.
