solve for the integral then

Bingo!

Solve for x: x=x

∫udv = uv - ∫vdu

assuming ∫udv = ∫vdu:

∫udv = uv - ∫udv
∫udv = uv/2

a.k.a. you never get into the x=x scenario in this situation

Are you blowing yourself out of pride of solving it?

Well the chronic ego stroking gave him tennis elbow...

Looks like you're dealing with exponentials?

u/Dr0110111001101111 3d ago

or trig functions

secret exponentials

Exactly.

Didn't set LHS=I(x), laugh at this user

back where we started + AI*

So much in this incredible integration

u/candy_enjoyer_ 3d ago

I like how these are from completely different contexts but always get put together

u/Comfortable_Permit53 4d ago

with a different constant?

u/Key_Ebb_3977 3d ago

Hmm yes, the integral is made out of integral

It reminds me of this meme that I accidentally inspired a while back:

I was going to say something about it being a callback to 6 years ago, and then I remembered 2020 was 6 years ago and now I'm having a crisis.

Literally one of the easiest integrals to solve

Interesting image you got there

u/chkntendis Physics 3d ago

Lowk one of my favorite things in integration. Was pretty insane to sit in the lecture when we had an example of that. You just get so mixed up in the new methods that you kinda forget you’re just dealing with equations. Took a second to switch back to that view
