I've been trying to solve this for the past hours and I cannot seem to arrive at the right answer :/ I'm trying to prepare for an exam in a week's time, but it's a hell of a problem. Could you please help me by explaining the process? Problem ( I will do my best to explain it as I can't write the symbols) (the upper and lower limits are the numbers for the f symbol, at the top and bottom of it) integral (F) *upper limit = 2, lower limit = 1; (x^2 - 1)^10 * 22x dx. So, the function looks like this: F (2=top, 1=bottom) (x^2 - 1)^10 * 22x dx. Please help! Aga

When x= 1 u= 0, when x= 2, u= 3 so the integral becomes $11\int_0^1 u^{10} du= \left[u^{11}\right]_0^3= 3^{11}$
