This problem is a little bit tricky. Since it is not given the
range of admissible values for x, we'll solve the integral admitting that interval of values for
x is the real set number.
Since the domain of values for the
function f(x) = x*sqrt(2x^2) is R, then:
sqrt x^2 = |x| and not
x
We'll solve the integral considering 2
cases:
Case 1:
For x>0, |x| =
x
Int x*sqrt(2x^2)dx = (sqrt2)*Int (x^2)dx = [(sqrt2)*x^3]/2 +
C
Case 2:
For x<0. then |x| =
-x
Int x*sqrt(2x^2)dx = (sqrt2)*Int - (x^2)dx = - [(sqrt2)*x^3]/2 +
C
The indefinite integral of the given function is:
[(sqrt2)*x^3]/2 + C, if x > 0, or - [(sqrt2)*x^3]/2 + C, if x <
0.
