Let $I_{n}(x)=\int_{0}^{x} \frac{1}{\left(t^{2}+5\right)^{n}} d t, n=1,2,3, \ldots .$ Then :
Solution
<p>${I_n}(x) = \int\limits_0^x {{1 \over {{{({t^2} + 5)}^n}}}dt}$</p>
<p>$$ = \int\limits_0^x {{1 \over {\underbrace {{{({t^2} + 5)}^n}}_I}} \times \mathop I\limits_{II} \,dt} $$</p>
<p>$$ = \left. {{t \over {{{({t^2} + 5)}^n}}}} \right|_0^x - \int\limits_0^x {{{ - 2nt} \over {{{({t^2} + 5)}^{n + 1}}}} \times t\,dt} $$</p>
<p>$$ = {x \over {{{({x^2} + 5)}^n}}} + \int\limits_0^x {2n\left( {{{{t^2} + 5 - 5} \over {{{({t^2} + 5)}^{n + 1}}}}} \right)dt} $$</p>
<p>${I_n}(x) = {x \over {{{({x^2} + 5)}^n}}} + 2n\,{I_n}(x) - 10n\,{I_{n + 1}}(x)$</p>
<p>$10n\,{I_{n + 1}}(x) - (2n - 1)\,{I_n}(x) = xI{'_n}(x)$</p>
<p>For $n = 5$</p>
<p>$50{I_6}(x) - 9{I_5}(x) = xI{'_5}(x)$</p>
