Evaluate the integrals in Exercises 31–56. Some integrals do not require integration by parts.
∫ e√x / √x dx

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the integral to solve: \(\int \frac{e^{\sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x}} \, dx\).
Use the substitution method by letting \(u = \sqrt{x} = x^{1/2}\). Then, express \(x\) and \(dx\) in terms of \(u\).
Calculate \(dx\) in terms of \(du\): Since \(u = x^{1/2}\), then \(x = u^2\) and \(dx = 2u \, du\).
Rewrite the integral in terms of \(u\): Substitute \(e^{\sqrt{x}} = e^u\) and \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} = \frac{1}{u}\), and replace \(dx\) with \(2u \, du\).
Simplify the integral after substitution and then integrate with respect to \(u\).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Substitution Method

The substitution method simplifies integrals by changing variables to transform the integral into a more manageable form. For example, setting a new variable equal to a function inside the integral can help rewrite the integral in terms of this variable, making it easier to evaluate.

Integration of Exponential Functions

Integrating exponential functions involves recognizing the form e^u and applying the chain rule in reverse. When the exponent is a function of x, substitution is often used to handle the integral, especially if the derivative of the exponent appears elsewhere in the integrand.

Handling Radicals in Integrals

Radicals such as √x can be rewritten as fractional exponents (x^(1/2)) to simplify integration. This allows the use of power rule integration and facilitates substitution when combined with other functions, like exponentials, in the integrand.
