Math Problem Statement

∫ 5x cos(19x) dx

Solution

The integral provided is:

5xcos(19x)dx\int 5x \cos(19x) \, dx

To solve this, we will use integration by parts. The integration by parts formula is:

udv=uvvdu\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du

Step 1: Choose uu and dvdv

Let:

  • u=5xu = 5x (so that du=5dxdu = 5 \, dx)
  • dv=cos(19x)dxdv = \cos(19x) \, dx (so that v=sin(19x)19v = \frac{\sin(19x)}{19}, as the integral of cos(19x)\cos(19x) is 119sin(19x)\frac{1}{19} \sin(19x))

Step 2: Apply the integration by parts formula

5xcos(19x)dx=5xsin(19x)195sin(19x)19dx\int 5x \cos(19x) \, dx = 5x \cdot \frac{\sin(19x)}{19} - \int 5 \cdot \frac{\sin(19x)}{19} \, dx

Step 3: Solve the remaining integral

Now we need to solve the integral:

5sin(19x)19dx\int \frac{5 \sin(19x)}{19} \, dx

The integral of sin(19x)\sin(19x) is 119cos(19x)-\frac{1}{19} \cos(19x), so:

5sin(19x)19dx=5192cos(19x)\int \frac{5 \sin(19x)}{19} \, dx = -\frac{5}{19^2} \cos(19x)

Step 4: Combine the results

Now, combine the results from the previous steps:

5xcos(19x)dx=5xsin(19x)19+5192cos(19x)+C\int 5x \cos(19x) \, dx = \frac{5x \sin(19x)}{19} + \frac{5}{19^2} \cos(19x) + C

Thus, the exact answer is:

5xsin(19x)19+5361cos(19x)+C\frac{5x \sin(19x)}{19} + \frac{5}{361} \cos(19x) + C
