\begin{document}

The equation is:
[ \frac{1}{3}u^{-\frac{2}{3}}\left(1 - \frac{1}{u}\right) = \frac{1}{3}u^{-\frac{2}{3}} ]

so idk

steep fossil
#

So you should expand out the bracket on the RHS, integrate both sides with respect to u and get v = 1/4 * (u)^4/3 - u^1/3 + C

#

Then given that when u =8, v=-1 find C

#

so I think I get C = -3

#

I think you’ve just forgotten the leading term of 1/4 * u^4/3
