$\int (2 x^{3} + 2 x) u (x) d x = x^{6} + 2 x^{4} + x^{2} + C$

Step 1

This integral could not be completed using u-substitution. Mathway will use another method.

Step 2

Since $u$ is constant with respect to $x$ , move $u$ out of the integral.

$u \int (2 x^{3} + 2 x) (x) d x$

Step 3.1

Apply the distributive property.

$u \int 2 x^{3} x + 2 x \cdot x d x$

Step 3.2

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$u \int 2 (x^{3} x^{1}) + 2 x \cdot x d x$

Step 3.3

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$u \int 2 x^{3 + 1} + 2 x \cdot x d x$

Step 3.4

Add $3$ and $1$ .

$u \int 2 x^{4} + 2 x \cdot x d x$

Step 3.5

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$u \int 2 x^{4} + 2 (x^{1} x) d x$

Step 3.6

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$u \int 2 x^{4} + 2 (x^{1} x^{1}) d x$

Step 3.7

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$u \int 2 x^{4} + 2 x^{1 + 1} d x$

Step 3.8

Add $1$ and $1$ .

$u \int 2 x^{4} + 2 x^{2} d x$

Step 4

Split the single integral into multiple integrals.

$u (\int 2 x^{4} d x + \int 2 x^{2} d x)$

Step 5

Since $2$ is constant with respect to $x$ , move $2$ out of the integral.

$u (2 \int x^{4} d x + \int 2 x^{2} d x)$

Step 6

By the Power Rule, the integral of $x^{4}$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{1}{5} x^{5}$ .

$u (2 (\frac{1}{5} x^{5} + C) + \int 2 x^{2} d x)$

Step 7

Since $2$ is constant with respect to $x$ , move $2$ out of the integral.

$u (2 (\frac{1}{5} x^{5} + C) + 2 \int x^{2} d x)$

Step 8

By the Power Rule, the integral of $x^{2}$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{1}{3} x^{3}$ .

$u (2 (\frac{1}{5} x^{5} + C) + 2 (\frac{1}{3} x^{3} + C))$
