Use one of the reduction formulas shown to the right (which are valid for $a \neq 0$) to evaluate the integral below. $\int x^5 e^{5x} dx$ $\int x^5 e^{5x} dx = \square$ $\int x^n e^{ax} dx = \frac{x^n e^{ax}}{a} - \frac{n}{a} \int x^{n-1} e^{ax} dx$ $\int x^n \cos ax \, dx = \frac{x^n \sin ax}{a} - \frac{n}{a} \int x^{n-1} \sin ax \, dx$ $\int x^n \sin ax \, dx = -\frac{x^n \cos ax}{a} + \frac{n}{a} \int x^{n-1} \cos ax \, dx$ $\int \ln^n x \, dx = x \ln^n x - n \int \ln^{n-1} x \, dx$

Use the reduction formulas shown to the right to evaluate the following integral: ∫(e^ax)dx = (1/a)e^ax + C ∫cos(ax)dx = (1/a)sin(ax) + C for a ≠ 0 ∫(xsin(ax))dx = -(1/a)cos(ax) + C for a ≠ 0 ∫(xcos(ax))dx = (1/a)sin(ax) + C for a ≠ 0 ∫(ln(x))dx = xln(x) - x + C ∫sin^2(x)dx = (1/2)(x - sin(2x)) + C

Use integration by parts to derive the following reduction formulas. $$\int x^{n} e^{a x} d x=\frac{x^{n} e^{a x}}{a}-\frac{n}{a} \int x^{n-1} e^{a x} d x, \text { for } a \neq 0$$

Integration by Parts
Use integration by parts to establish the reduction formula. $$ \int x^{n} e^{a x} d x=\frac{x^{n} e^{a x}}{a}-\frac{n}{a} \int x^{n-1} e^{a x} d x, \quad a \neq 0 $$
