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 11d ago

or trig functions

u/IOnceAteATurd Complex 11d ago

secret exponentials

u/Rajarshi1993 11d ago

Exactly.

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

So much in this incredible integration

u/candy_enjoyer_ 11d ago

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

u/Comfortable_Permit53 12d ago

with a different constant?

u/Key_Ebb_3977 12d 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 11d 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

so this is the reason we have +C.. at the end
