CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. Put t=xt = \sqrt{x}; then dtdt is the rest of the integrand, up to a constant.

  2. The integral becomes a standard form in tt; putting t=xt = \sqrt{x} back gives 2sin⁡(x)+C2 \sin{\left(\sqrt{x} \right)} + C.

  3. Check: differentiating the answer gives back the integrand.

Worth noting

Getting the constant from dtdt wrong multiplies or divides the answer: check by differentiating.
