Question: Evaluate the integral. 9 xcos ( 4 x ) dx 9 xcos ( 4 x ) dx To use the integration - by - parts

Evaluate the integral.
9xcos(4x)dx9xcos(4x)dx
To use the integration-by-parts formula udv=uvvduudv=uv-vdu, we must choose one part of 9xcos(4x)dx9xcos(4x)dx to be uu, with the rest becoming dvdv.
Since the goal is to produce a simpler integral, we will choose u=9xu=9x. This means that
dv=dv= dxdx.
Now, since u=9xu=9x, then du=du= dxdx.
With our choice that dv=cos(4x)dxdv=cos(4x)dx, then v=cos(4x)dxv=cos(4x)dx. This can be calculated using integration by substitution.
In this case (ignoring the constant of integration) we get v=v=.
Now, the integration-by-parts formula udv=uvvduudv=uv-vdu gives us
udv=uvvduudv=uv-vdu
=94xsin(4x)94sin(=94xsin(4x)-94sin( x)dxx)dx.
We must use substitution to do this second integral.
We can use the substitution t=4xt=4x, which will give dx=dx= dtdt.
Ignoring the constant of integration, we have
sin(4x)dx=sin(4x)dx=.
Combining our results and including the constant of integration, CC, we finally get
9xcos(4x)dx=
