Can someone please give as simple an example as possible to show what U substitution is about? I know basic integration rules but don't understand the point of u-substitution. I've read that it's used to "undo the chain rule", but I don't see how, and don't see how we can spot when we'd need to reverse the chain rule for integration as opposed to just following the normal rule for integration ( adding one to the exponent and dividing by the exponent plus 1). Thanks
