$\int {(x^{2} + x)}^{10} (2 x + 1) d x$

Step 1

Let $u = x^{2} + x$ . Then $d u = (2 x + 1) d x$ , so $\frac{1}{2 x + 1} d u = d x$ . Rewrite using $u$ and $d$ $u$ .

Step 1.1.1

Differentiate $x^{2} + x$ .

$\frac{d}{d x} [x^{2} + x]$

Step 1.1.2

By the Sum Rule, the derivative of $x^{2} + x$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}] + \frac{d}{d x} [x]$ .

$\frac{d}{d x} [x^{2}] + \frac{d}{d x} [x]$

Step 1.1.3

Differentiate using the Power Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{n}]$ is $n x^{n - 1}$ where $n = 2$ .

$2 x + \frac{d}{d x} [x]$

Step 1.1.4

Differentiate using the Power Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [x^{n}]$ is $n x^{n - 1}$ where $n = 1$ .

$2 x + 1$

Step 1.2

Rewrite the problem using $u$ and $d u$ .

$\int u^{10} d u$

Step 2

By the Power Rule, the integral of $u^{10}$ with respect to $u$ is $\frac{1}{11} u^{11}$ .

$\frac{1}{11} u^{11} + C$

Step 3

Replace all occurrences of $u$ with $x^{2} + x$ .

$\frac{1}{11} {(x^{2} + x)}^{11} + C$
