Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

First, let's simplify the expression:

∫ex(2x+12x)dx=∫ex⋅2x+12⋅x−1/2dx\int e^x \left(\dfrac{2x+1}{2\sqrt{x}}\right) dx = \int e^x \cdot \dfrac{2x+1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx

=∫ex⋅(2x2⋅x−1/2+12⋅x−1/2)dx= \int e^x \cdot \left(\dfrac{2x}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2}\right) dx

=∫ex⋅(x1/2+12⋅x−1/2)dx= \int e^x \cdot \left(x^{1/2} + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2}\right) dx


Splitting the integral:

∫ex⋅(x1/2+12⋅x−1/2)dx=∫ex⋅x1/2dx+∫ex⋅12⋅x−1/2dx\int e^x \cdot \left(x^{1/2} + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2}\right) dx = \int e^x \cdot x^{1/2} dx + \int e^x \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx


Using integration by parts for the first part with:

u=x1/2u = x^{1/2} so du=12⋅x−1/2dxdu = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx

dv=exdxdv = e^x dx so v=exv = e^x

∫ex⋅x1/2dx=x1/2⋅ex−∫ex⋅12⋅x−1/2dx\int e^x \cdot x^{1/2} dx = x^{1/2} \cdot e^x - \int e^x \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx


Notice that the second term is the negative of our second integral:

∫ex⋅x1/2dx+∫ex⋅12⋅x−1/2dx=x1/2⋅ex−∫ex⋅12⋅x−1/2dx+∫ex⋅12⋅x−1/2dx\int e^x \cdot x^{1/2} dx + \int e^x \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx = x^{1/2} \cdot e^x - \int e^x \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx + \int e^x \cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1/2} dx

The last two integrals cancel out, giving us:

∫ex(2x+12x)dx=x⋅ex+C\int e^x \left(\dfrac{2x+1}{2\sqrt{x}}\right) dx = \sqrt{x} \cdot e^x + C
