What is the integral of x squared over (x divided by 6)?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking for the integral of (x squared) / (x/6). To solve this, we first simplify the expression and then apply the rules of integration.

Answer

The integral of \( \frac{x^2}{\frac{x}{6}} \) is \( 3x^2 + C \).
Answer for screen readers

The integral of ( \frac{x^2}{\frac{x}{6}} ) is ( 3x^2 + C ).

Steps to Solve

  1. Simplify the Expression

First, simplify the integrand. We have:

$$ \frac{x^2}{\frac{x}{6}} $$

This can be simplified by multiplying the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator:

$$ = x^2 \times \frac{6}{x} $$

This gives us:

$$ = 6x $$

  1. Set Up the Integral

Now, we can set up the integral with the simplified expression:

$$ \int 6x , dx $$

  1. Integrate the Expression

Now, apply the power rule of integration. The power rule states that:

$$ \int x^n , dx = \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1} + C $$

For our integral:

$$ \int 6x , dx = 6 \cdot \frac{x^{2}}{2} + C $$

  1. Simplify the Result

Now, simplify the expression:

$$ = 3x^2 + C $$

This is the final result of the integration.

The integral of ( \frac{x^2}{\frac{x}{6}} ) is ( 3x^2 + C ).

More Information

This integration uses basic algebra and the power rule for integration. The constant ( C ) represents the constant of integration which is added because integral equations can have infinite solutions due to varying constants.

Tips

  • Forgetting to simplify the expression before integrating, which can lead to more complex calculations.
  • Not applying the integral constant ( C ) correctly, which is crucial in indefinite integrals.
