∫[(5x²-3x+2)/√x]dx

∫[(sin5x)/(1+cos5x)²]dx

Can somebody quickly solve these for me please?
Also, is there an actual method in doing these besides intuitive trial and error?

Thanks a ∞!

This is easiest problem that you probably can't solve.

"Twenty coins are placed on the top of a table in a completely dark room so that exactly 13 of them have "heads" facing upward. You cannot see the coins to determine which coins are "heads", nor can you tell "heads from "tails" by touch. You are allowed to change the "head/tail" status of as many coins as you wish by flipping them. Explain how you can separate the coins into two piles and be guaranteed that each of the piles has the same number of "heads" facing upward."
