The integrals in Exercises 1–44 are in no particular order. Evaluate each integral using any algebraic method, trigonometric identity, or substitution you think is appropriate.
∫ 3 sinh(x/2 + ln 5) dx

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Recognize that the integral involves the hyperbolic sine function \( \sinh \left( \frac{x}{2} + \ln 5 \right) \). Recall that \( \sinh(u) = \frac{e^{u} - e^{-u}}{2} \), which can be useful for integration.
Let \( u = \frac{x}{2} + \ln 5 \). Then, compute \( du = \frac{1}{2} dx \), which implies \( dx = 2 du \). This substitution will simplify the integral.
Rewrite the integral in terms of \( u \): \( \int 3 \sinh(u) dx = \int 3 \sinh(u) \cdot 2 du = \int 6 \sinh(u) du \).
Integrate \( \sinh(u) \) with respect to \( u \). Recall that \( \int \sinh(u) du = \cosh(u) + C \). So, \( \int 6 \sinh(u) du = 6 \cosh(u) + C \).
Substitute back \( u = \frac{x}{2} + \ln 5 \) to express the answer in terms of \( x \): the integral is \( 6 \cosh \left( \frac{x}{2} + \ln 5 \right) + C \).

Concetti chiave

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

Hyperbolic Functions

Hyperbolic functions, such as sinh(x), are analogs of trigonometric functions but based on hyperbolas. The sinh function is defined as (e^x - e^(-x))/2 and has properties useful for integration, including linearity and known derivatives.

Integration by Substitution

Integration by substitution involves changing variables to simplify an integral. By letting u equal an inner function (e.g., u = x/2 + ln 5), the integral can be rewritten in terms of u, making it easier to evaluate.

Linearity of Integration

The linearity property states that constants can be factored out of integrals and sums of functions can be integrated term-by-term. This allows the constant 3 to be factored out, simplifying the integral before applying substitution.
