$3 \sqrt{x} - 2 \sqrt[3]{x}$

Step 1

Split the single integral into multiple integrals.

$\int 3 \sqrt{x} d x + \int - 2 \sqrt[3]{x} d x$

Step 2

Since $3$ is constant with respect to $x$ , move $3$ out of the integral.

$3 \int \sqrt{x} d x + \int - 2 \sqrt[3]{x} d x$

Step 3

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt{x}$ as $x^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

$3 \int x^{\frac{1}{2}} d x + \int - 2 \sqrt[3]{x} d x$

Step 4

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

$3 (\frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} + C) + \int - 2 \sqrt[3]{x} d x$

Step 5

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

$3 (\frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} + C) - 2 \int \sqrt[3]{x} d x$

Step 6

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt[3]{x}$ as $x^{\frac{1}{3}}$ .

$3 (\frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} + C) - 2 \int x^{\frac{1}{3}} d x$

Step 7

By the Power Rule, the integral of $x^{\frac{1}{3}}$ with respect to $x$ is $\frac{3}{4} x^{\frac{4}{3}}$ .

$3 (\frac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} + C) - 2 (\frac{3}{4} x^{\frac{4}{3}} + C)$
