Evaluate the integral x^3 (x 4 −8)^44 dx by making the substitution u = x^4 - 8

(x^4-8)^45 /180 +c

Step-by-step explanation:

If u=x^4-8, then du=(4x^3-0)dx or du=4x^3 dx by power and constant rule.

If du=4x^3 dx, then du/4=x^3 dx. I just divided both sides by 4.

Now we are ready to make substitutions into our integral.

Int(x^3 (x^4-8)^44 dx)

Int(((x^4-8)^44 x^3 dx)

Int(u^44 du/4)

1/4 Int(u^44 dul

1/4 × (u^45 / 45 )+c

Put back in terms of x:

1/4 × (x^4-8)^45/45 +c

We could multiply those fractions

(x^4-8)^45 /180 +c

this is false ^.^ lol

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
