The integral equals #3/8(z^4 + 7)^(2/3) + C#

Explanation:

We let #u = z^4 + 7#. Then #du = 4z^3dz -> dz = (du)/(4z^3)#.

#I = int z^3/root(3)(u) * 1/(4z^3) du#

#I = 1/4 int 1/root(3)(u)du#

#I = 1/4int u^(-1/3)#

By the power rule of integration:

#I = 1/4(3/2)u^(2/3) + C#

Reverse the substitution.

#I = 3/8(z^4+ 7)^(2/3) + C#

Hopefully this helps!
