00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.425
Here is the problem: integrate x squared ln(x).

2
00:00:03.875 --> 00:00:10.098
Find the indefinite integral (antiderivative) of x squared ln(x) with respect to x.

3
00:00:10.898 --> 00:00:12.361
Start with the integral.

4
00:00:12.811 --> 00:00:17.734
Integration by parts with u equals ln, dv equals polynomial.

5
00:00:18.184 --> 00:00:21.400
Apply by parts and integrate the remaining polynomial.

6
00:00:21.850 --> 00:00:24.834
Simplify and add the constant of integration.

7
00:00:25.634 --> 00:00:31.044
So the answer is x cubed(ln(x) / 3 minus 1 over 9) plus C.

8
00:00:31.494 --> 00:00:42.500
An antiderivative F satisfies F prime of x equals f(x). Because the derivative of any constant is 0, every antiderivative differs by a constant C.

9
00:00:43.300 --> 00:00:49.024
Differentiated the answer and compared it with the integrand at 8 sample points, which checks out.
