Having a hard time trying to solve this indefinite integral.
Post Body

Hi guys. I'm talking a calc course in college right now and I'm studying for a test I have tomorrow. Our prof gave us problems he said would be similar to the ones we were gonna have on the test.

I'm trying to solve this particular one and I just can't get to it. He gave us the answers, and told us we had to get there from our work.

So the problem is, evaluate the indefinite integral of dx/(3-5x2)3/2.

I know it's a problem concerning trigonometric substitution. The identity I'm using is 1 tan2(x). I've factored out that three to make it work for that identity, but I've always ended up with something extremely confusing.

I'm not the greatest at math, but I passed my differential calc course with a B, and I would like to keep up a decent grade in this class.

I'm hoping someone will hear my plea for help. I've been at it for an hour. It's just not getting through to me.
