y` = 1 / ( 20t - 5t^2)

y'= 1 / (20t-5t^2)


y'= (20t-5t^2) ^-1


y= (20t-5t^2) ^-1 / -1 * 20.10t (function of a function rule)


y= (20t-5t^2)^-1 / -1 * (200t)


y= (20t-5t^2)^-1 / -200t


y= 1 / (20t-5t^2) / -200t


y= 1/ (20t-5t^2) * 1/-200t


y= (20t-5t^2) ^-1 / -200t ^-1 + C


ermm i think i fludged somewhere

I thought you integrated to a natural logarithm (loge f(x))
Oh shit i forgot.. thats what you do.

Edit: Wait maybe not

mmm seems wrong, there's no function of a function rule for integration right?

Actually wait.. i think when you do function of a function rule.. you have to add one to the orginal power.. which would make it equal to the ^ of 0. Which there is an error.

Edit: i'll get my textbook for the formula.

Yes there is
ya ...

∫ (ax + b)n dx = (ax + b)n+1 / a(n+1) + C

... I think ...

Above ?

Also ... ∫ 1/x dx = ∫ x-1 dx MUST equal ln x + C, you can't have x0 + C

but doesnt the original function have to be linear?

Maybe that function can't be integrated. Or have to use another rule/formula.

How bout if I do like this:

∫ 1/(20t-5t^2) dt

... Which could be equal to... (correct me if im wrong)

∫ (1/20t) - 5t^-2 dt

( 1/20 ) ∫ (20/20t) - ∫(5t^-2)

= 1/20 * ln (20t) + 5 / t + C

not sure =/

Fractions too as long as they can be integrated to a natural logarithm,
like ∫ 5/3x dx = (5/3) ln (3x) + C, not something crazy like the OP posted.
Yer. I'm pretty sure that question isn't a 2unit question, more like a 'harder 2 unit question.'
