How do I do this integral?

I took algebra 1 eleven years ago. Cut me some slack. Lol.

And I took algebra -1 ~51 years ago... no slack here...

Well, that's why they pay you the big bucks. lol.

Also, what you showed was pretty straightforward. I just didn't think to do it like that in my cursory, scatterbrained approach.

This is taught - generally in Algebra 1.

Not any more! :lol:

These days, secondary-school math curricula need to be dumbed-down. Otherwise, 50% of the senior class would not be able to graduate.

National media reports of late used to horrify me; now, I just laugh.
