Hello, I tried posting this question yesterday but it must have gotten caught in the spam filter because I included a link, I'll avoid doing it this time, since I'm too lazy to rewrite it I'll be brief. As the title said I tried I'm having trouble integrating: 

(2xsin3x)dx

I first moved the 2 outside the integral and tried applying integration by parts which lead me to the following:

6xcos3(x)18xcos(x)2sin3(x)12sin(x)9

I chose x to be equal to u as to derivate it and get rid of it when I'd have to integrate the second time. I ended up having to integrate sin^3(x) and cos^3(x) if I remember correctly. I did this question twice with the same result. 

 

After looking the answer up on some online integral calculating site it gave something else. I compared the two to see if they were perhaps equal but written in another form but without success. 

 

I'd appreciate a step by step solution or a link to one. That'd probably clear things up as I can't be able to see the error I made, thanks alot!

integrating: 

dx 2xsin3(x)

 

1. Let

dx sin3(x)=dx sin2(x)sin(x)=dx [1cos2(x)]sin(x)u=cos(x)du=sin(x)dx=du 1sin(x)(1u2)sin(x)=du (1u2)=du+du u2=u+13u3=cos(x)+13cos3(x)

 

2. Let

dx cos3(x)=dx cos2(x)cos(x)=dx [1sin2(x)]cos(x)u=sin(x)du=cos(x)dx=du 1cos(x)(1u2)cos(x)=du (1u2)=dudu u2=u13u3=sin(x)13sin3(x)

 

3. Let

dx xsin3(x)u=xu=1v=cos(x)+13cos3(x)v=sin3(x)=x[cos(x)+13cos3(x)]dx 1[cos(x)+13cos3(x)]=xcos(x)+13xcos3(x)+dx cos(x)dx 13cos3(x)=xcos(x)+13xcos3(x)+sin(x)13dx cos3(x)=xcos(x)+13xcos3(x)+sin(x)13[sin(x)13sin3(x)]=xcos(x)+13xcos3(x)+sin(x)13sin(x)+19sin3(x)]=xcos(x)+13xcos3(x)+23sin(x)+19sin3(x)dx 2xsin3(x)=2xcos(x)+23xcos3(x)+43sin(x)+29sin3(x)=19[18xcos(x)+6xcos3(x)+12sin(x)+2sin3(x)]

 

4. Let

cos3(x)=14[3cos(x)+cos(3x)]sin3(x)=14[3sin(x)sin(3x)]

 

5. Let

dx 2xsin3(x)=19[18xcos(x)+6xcos3(x)+12sin(x)+2sin3(x)]=19{18xcos(x)+6x14[3cos(x)+cos(3x)]+12sin(x)+214[3sin(x)sin(3x)]}=2xcos(x)+16x[3cos(x)+cos(3x)]+43sin(x)+118[3sin(x)sin(3x)]=2xcos(x)+12xcos(x)+16xcos(3x)+43sin(x)+16sin(x)118sin(3x)=32xcos(x)+16xcos(3x)+32sin(x)118sin(3x)

 

or

dx 2xsin3(x)=32xcos(x)+16xcos(3x)+32sin(x)118sin(3x)=118[27xcos(x)+3xcos(3x)+27sin(x)sin(3x)]
