Ari looks at ∫ 2x(x² + 1)⁵ dx before starting. Which method fits it best?
- the power rule on 2x and (x² + 1)⁵ separately
- long division of 2x by x² + 1
- the arctan rule on x² + 1
- substitution with u = x² + 1
Bo looks at ∫ 1/(x² + 25) dx before starting. Which method fits it best?
- the power rule on (x² + 25)⁻¹
- long division of 1 by x² + 25
- the arctan rule with a = 5
- substitution with u = x² + 25
Esme looks at ∫ (x² + 1)/x dx before starting. Which method fits it best?
- the power rule on x² + 1, then divide by x
- the arctan rule on x² + 1
- divide first, into x + 1/x
- substitution with u = x² + 1
Jun looks at ∫ 3x² − 4x + 7 dx before starting. Which method fits it best?
- the arctan rule on 3x² − 4x + 7
- divide 3x² − 4x + 7 by x first
- substitution with u = 3x² − 4x + 7
- the power rule, term by term
