Problem 4.193 · medium
Find \( \displaystyle \int - 8 x + 3 \left(2 x - 1\right)^{2} + 5 \, dx \). (Omit the constant of integration.)
- \[ \int \left(- 8 x + 3 \left(2 x - 1\right)^{2} + 5\right)\, dx \]integralStart with the integral of the given expression.✓ Proved
- \[ = \int \left(12 x^{2} - 20 x + 8\right)\, dx \]algebra algebra simplifyExpand the squared binomial. Distribute the 3 into the parentheses. Combine like terms.✓ Proved
- \[ = \int 8\, dx - \int 20 x\, dx + \int 12 x^{2}\, dx \]linearitySplit the integral into three parts.✓ Proved
- \[ = 4 x^{3} - 10 x^{2} + 8 x \]antiderivativeIntegrate each term using the power rule.✓ Proved
Answer \( 4 x^{3} - 10 x^{2} + 8 x + C \)
✓ Nihil obstat Every line of this solution was proved by the computer algebra system SymPy. The answer was also checked a second way, without looking at the solution. Reviewers found nothing wrong with the explanation.

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate
method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence,
not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by
gemma4:26b, checked 2026-09-29 with SymPy 1.14.0.
