Question
$\int \frac{d x}{x^3\left(1+x^4\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}} \quad$ equals

Answer

$\int \frac{d x}{x^3\left(1+x^4\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}=\int \frac{d x}{x^5\left(1+\frac{1}{x^4}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}$
$\left(\text { Let } 1+x^{-4}=1+\frac{1}{x^4}=t, d t=-4 x^{-5} d x=-\frac{4}{x^5} d x \Rightarrow \frac{d x}{x^5}=-\frac{1}{4} d t \text { ) }\right.$
$=-\frac{1}{4} \int \frac{d t}{t^{\frac{1}{2}}}=-\frac{1}{4} \times 2 \times \sqrt{t}+c, \text { where' } c \text { ' denotes any arbitrary constant of integration. }$
$=-\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^4}}+c$
