# Math Help - Definite Intergral

1. ## Definite Intergral

Hi, could someone tell me if this is the correct answer?

$

\int_0^2 {3x^5e^{x^3}dx}
$

I got:

$
7e^8 +1$

yes that is correct

$

\int_{e}^{1} \ \frac{(ln(x))^{1/n}}{x} \ dx
$

where n is a natural number

(n^(1/n +1))/(1+n)

Note quite the final answer should be

$-\frac{n}{n+1}$

Here is what I did, can you point out where i am going wrong:
$

\int_{e}^{1} \ \frac{(ln(x))^{1/n}}{x} \ dx

$

let ln(x) = u
du = 1/x dx

change limits of integration
x=e then u=1
x=1, u=0

$=\int_{1}^{0} {u}^{1/n}du
$

$= \frac {n{u}^{1/n +1}}{1+n}\
$

$\int_{1}^{0}u^{\frac{1}{n}}du=\frac{n}{n+1}u^{\fra c{n+1}{n}} \bigg|_{1}^{0}=\frac{n}{n+1}(0^{\frac{n+1}{n}}-1^{\frac{n+1}{n}})=-\frac{n}{n+1}$
