   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Factor $\sqrt{\sin x}+\sqrt{\cos x}=\sqrt{\cos x}(\sqrt{\tan x}+1)$ to reduce the integrand to $\dfrac{\sec^2 x}{\sqrt{\tan x}+1}$; substituting $u=\sqrt{\tan x}$ gives option (A).

   Write the denominator as $\sqrt{\sin x}+\sqrt{\cos x}=\sqrt{\cos x}\bigl(\sqrt{\tan x}+1\bigr)$. The numerator is $\sec x\sqrt{\sec x}=\cos^{-3/2}x$, so

   $\dfrac{\cos^{-3/2}x}{\sqrt{\cos x}\,(\sqrt{\tan x}+1)}=\dfrac{\cos^{-2}x}{\sqrt{\tan x}+1}=\dfrac{\sec^2 x}{\sqrt{\tan x}+1}.$

   Simplify to $9x^2(1-x^3)^{2/3}$, then substitute $u=1-x^3$ to obtain $-\dfrac{9}{5}(1-x^3)^{5/3}+C$.

   Since $\bigl(27x^3(1-x^3)\bigr)^{2/3}=27^{2/3}(x^3)^{2/3}(1-x^3)^{2/3}=9x^2(1-x^3)^{2/3}$, let $u=1-x^3$, $du=-3x^2\,dx$, so $x^2\,dx=-\tfrac{du}{3}$: …

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Let $u=\sin t-\cos t$; the numerator becomes $du$ and $13+36\sin 2t=49-36u^2$, giving a standard $\tfrac{du}{a^2-k^2u^2}$ integral.

   Set $u=\sin t-\cos t$. Then

   $du=(\cos t+\sin t)\,dt,$

   which is exactly the numerator, and

   $u^2=1-2\sin t\cos t=1-\sin 2t\;\Rightarrow\;\sin 2t=1-u^2.$

   So the denominator is

   $13+36\sin 2t=13+36(1-u^2)=49-36u^2.$

   Hence

   $\int\frac{du}{49-36u^2}=\int\frac{du}{7^2-(6u)^2}.$ …

   Substituting u=sin^{-1}x turns the integral into u du = (1/2)(sin^{-1}x)^2 + C.

   Concept and Intuition

   The factor 1/sqrt(1-x^2) is exactly the derivative of sin^{-1}x, so the substitution u = sin^{-1}x collapses the integral.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Let u = sin^{-1}x, then du = dx/sqrt(1-x^2).
   2. The integral becomes integral of u du. …

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Substituting u=x^8+1 gives (1/2)(x^8+1)^{1/4} + C.

   Concept and Intuition

   The presence of x^7 alongside x^8 signals the substitution u = x^8 + 1, whose differential absorbs x^7 dx.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Let u = x^8 + 1, then du = 8 x^7 dx, so x^7 dx = du/8.
   2. Integral = (1/8) integral of u^{-3/4} du.

   ›Reveal solutionSolution

   Since d/dx[e^x(x^2-2x)] = e^x(x^2-2), the integral is sin(e^x(x^2-2x)) + C.

   Concept and Intuition

   Look for the outer function's argument, g(x) = e^x(x^2-2x), and check whether the rest of the integrand is exactly g'(x); if so the integral is a direct substitution.

   Step-by-Step Solution

   1. Let g(x) = e^x(x^2 - 2x).
   2. g'(x) = e^x(x^2-2x) + e^x(2x-2) = e^x(x^2 - 2), which is exactly the prefactor. …

    Substitute $u=\sqrt{2x+5}$; the differential cancels the $\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2x+5}}$ factor.

    Let $u=\sqrt{2x+5}$. Then

    $du=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{2x+5}}\cdot 2\,dx=\dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{2x+5}}.$

    ›Reveal solutionSolution

    Substitute $u=\tfrac1{x^6}+1$; the result is $-\tfrac12u^{1/3}$, matched to the given form $-\tfrac12(1/u)^{p}$ gives $p=-1/3$.

    Let $u=\dfrac{1}{x^6}+1$, so $du=-\dfrac{6}{x^7}\,dx$, i.e. $\dfrac{dx}{x^7}=-\dfrac{du}{6}$.

    $\int \frac{u^{-2/3}}{x^7}\,dx=\int u^{-2/3}\left(-\frac{du}{6}\right)=-\frac16\cdot\frac{u^{1/3}}{1/3}=-\frac12u^{1/3}+c.$ …
