Q#17)
∫(2 * sqrt(x^3) + 5x^-11 - 1/x) dx =
6/5 x^(5/3) - 1/(2x^10) - ln |x| + C
10/3 x^(5/3) - 1/(2x^10) - ln |x| + C
1/5 x^(5/2) - 1/(2x^10) - ln |x| + C
4/5 x^(5/2) - 1/(2x^10) - ln |x| + C
6/5 x^(5/3) - 5/(12x^12) - ln |x| + C
10/3 x^(5/3) - 5/(12x^12) - ln |x| + C
1/5 x^(5/2) - 5/(12x^12) - ln |x| + C
