Use two or more substitutions to find the following integral.

dx
(Hint: Begin with u = 13 + x .)
10 + 13 + x

Given an integrand function of the form f(g(x))g (x) dx, replace g(x) with u and g (x) dx with du. Rewrite the integral completely
in terms of the substitution variable u.

Here, the first substitution is given, u = g(x) = 13 + x .

Find the derivative of g(x).

1
g (x) =
2 x + 13

1
Therefore, u = 13 + x and du = dx. The differential dx is important.
2 x + 13

1
Now, notice that du cannot be directly substituted into the integrand because the integrand does not include dx. So,
2 x + 13
first rewrite du using the value of u.

1
du = dx
2u

Now, isolate dx.

2u du = dx

So, u = 13 + x and 2u du = dx. Rewrite the given integral in terms of u.

dx 2u
= du
10 + 13 + x 10 + u

Notice that another substitution needs to be performed before the integral can be evaluated. Use v as the variable for the
second substitution. Identify h(u) = v.

h(u) = 10 + u

Now, find the derivative of h(u).

1
h (u) = du
2 10 + u

1
Therefore, v = 10 + u and dv = du.
2 10 + u

1
Now, notice that dv cannot be directly substituted into the integrand because the integrand does not include du. So,
2 10 + u
first rewrite dv using the value of v.

1
dv = du
2v

Now, isolate du.

2v dv = du

So, 2v dv = du. Rewrite the given integral in terms of v. Note that v = 10 + u implies u = v2 10, so 2u = 2(v2 10).

2u 2 v2 10
du = 2v dv
10 + u v

Integrate the resulting integral.

Use v = 10 + u to express this result in terms of u.

v 40v + C = 10 + u 40 10 + u +C

Finally, use u = 13 + x to express this result in terms of x.

10 + u 40 10 + u +C= 10 + 13 + x 40 10 + 13 + x +C

Thus, = 10 + 13 + x 40 10 + 13 + x + C.
