Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are asked to find the integral of the function xcos(x5)x \cos(x^{}-5). . We will use the method of substitution to solve this integral.

STEP 2

Choose a suitable substitution. In this case, we let u=x25u = x^{2}-5.
u=x25u = x^{2}-5

STEP 3

Differentiate uu with respect to xx to find du/dxdu/dx.
dudx=2x\frac{du}{dx} =2x

STEP 4

Rearrange the above equation to express dxdx in terms of dudu.
dx=du2xdx = \frac{du}{2x}

STEP 5

Substitute uu and dxdx into the original integral.
2xcos(u)du2x\int2x \cos(u) \frac{du}{2x}

STEP 6

implify the integral by cancelling out the 2x2x terms.
cos(u)du\int \cos(u) du

STEP 7

Now, we can integrate cos(u)\cos(u) with respect to uu.
cos(u)du=sin(u)+C\int \cos(u) du = \sin(u) + C

STEP 8

Finally, substitute u=x25u = x^{2}-5 back into the integral.
sin(x25)+C\sin(x^{2}-5) + CSo, the value of 2xcos(x25)\int2x \cos(x^{2}-5) is sin(x25)+C\sin(x^{2}-5) + C.
