U-Substitution 142
Integration U-Substitution is used to integrate compositions of functions (like Substitution is the most powerful tool we have to find anti-derivatives when inspection for common rules fails. How to do U-Substitutions 1.Choose the “inside function” of a composition of functions to be called u. 2.Calculate the derivative of u, called 3. Get du by itself. (Multiply by dx). ** Our goal is to replace the entire integrand with an expression (or expressions) in terms of u. When done correctly, the new integral is a much easier one to evaluate. 4. It is often helpful to get dx by itself, although sometimes the problem already has part of your du in it, so you may not need to completely isolate dx to do your substitution. 5. Replace the inside function with u. Replace dx with whatever you got for dx in the previous step. 6. Integrate. 7. Replace u with the inside function.
