Given Integral: We are given the integral to evaluate: ∫2x(x2+1)2dxTo solve this integral, we will use substitution. Let's choose u=x2+1, then du=2xdx.
Substitution: Now we substitute u into the integral and also express dx in terms of du:∫2x(x2+1)2dx=∫u2du
Integral of u2: Next, we find the integral of u2 with respect to u: ∫u2du=31u3+C, where C is the constant of integration.
Substitute back to x: We substitute back the original variable x to get the answer in terms of x: 31u3+C=31(x2+1)3+C
Final Answer: Now we have the final answer:∫2x(x2+1)2dx=31(x2+1)3+C
