    Integrate
In summary, the conversation is about integrating the expression x3+1/(whole root over)x2+x. The speaker suggests using trig substitution after completing the square in the denominator. They also clarify that the first image is the one they are referring to.

Do you mean [tex]\int \frac{x^3+1}{\sqrt{x^2+x}}\,dx[/tex] or [tex]\int \left(x^3+\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+x}}\right)dx?[/tex]

Either way, the best thing to do is to start by completing the square in the denominator, then using a bunch of trig substitution stuff.

x3+13=(x+1)(x2-x+1)
x2+x=x(x+1)

Is it enough help?

Actually, x3 + 1 = (x + 1)(x2 - x + 1).

In any case, we still don't know exactly what the integrand is.

Mark44 thanks for the correction.

perfectibilis start by writing x3+1 with

[tex]\sqrt{(x+1)^2(x^2-x+1)^2}[/tex]

What is integration?

Integration is a mathematical process that involves finding the area under a curve. It is the inverse of differentiation and is used to solve problems related to velocity, acceleration, and other quantities in calculus.

What is the formula for integration?

The formula for integration is ∫ f(x) dx = F(x) + C, where f(x) is the function to be integrated, F(x) is the antiderivative of f(x), and C is the constant of integration.

What is the general process for solving integrals?

The general process for solving integrals involves the following steps: 1) Identify the function to be integrated, 2) Find the antiderivative of the function, 3) Evaluate the antiderivative at the upper and lower limits of integration, and 4) Subtract the lower limit from the upper limit to get the final answer.

What is the technique used to solve this specific integral?

This integral can be solved using the substitution method, where a new variable is introduced to simplify the integrand and make it easier to integrate.

What are the key terms to understand when solving integrals?

Some key terms to understand when solving integrals are: antiderivative, limits of integration, substitution, u-substitution, integration by parts, and partial fractions.
