Evaluate \(\int \frac{x^{3} + 3 x + 4}{\sqrt{x}}\, dx\).
💡 Concept Hints
Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.
✅ Step-by-Step Solution
Final Answer: \(\frac{2 x^{\frac{7}{2}}}{7} + 2 x^{\frac{3}{2}} + 8 \sqrt{x}\) + C.
Work on each open interval where the original integrand is real and defined.
Expand and use linearity, then integrate each power or elementary term.
The integrand rewrites as \(x^{\frac{5}{2}} + 3 \sqrt{x} + \frac{4}{\sqrt{x}}\). Apply ∫xᵖdx=x^(p+1)/(p+1) for p≠−1, ∫dx/x=log|x|, and the elementary exponential/trigonometric rules.
An antiderivative is F(x)=\(\frac{2 x^{\frac{7}{2}}}{7} + 2 x^{\frac{3}{2}} + 8 \sqrt{x}\).
Differentiate this expression to check that F′(x)=\(\frac{x^{3} + 3 x + 4}{\sqrt{x}}\). Add an arbitrary constant C on each domain component.
