how do you do that? integrate x^2 / 3x^5 wrt x. Do I use the prod rule for integration? (int by parts)

nah first you simplify it to 3/x^3, then you use index laws and index rule for integration :p

easy
move the 3 from the denominator to replace the 1 at the numerator

int( x^2 / 3x^5 ) wrt x
= int(1/3x^3) wrt x
= (1/3)int(x^-3) wrt x
= (1/3)((x^-2)/-2)
= (-x^2)/6
srry should be (-x^-2)/6

nup lol, also op is trolling

should be -1 / (6x^2)

and you forgot the integration constant
