In calculus, integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, reverse chain rule or change of variables, [1] is a method for evaluating integrals and antiderivatives. It is the counterpart to the chain rule for differentiation , and can loosely be thought of as using the chain rule "backwards."
In Integration by substitution, the limits of integration will change due to the new function being integrated. With the function that is being derived, a {\displaystyle a} and b {\displaystyle b} are solved for f ( u ) {\displaystyle f(u)} .
Also, the integration by substitution formula may be expressed by [20] ∫ y d x = ∫ y d x d u d u , {\displaystyle \int y\,dx=\int y{\frac {dx}{du}}\,du,} where x is thought of as a function of a new variable u and the function y on the left is expressed in terms of x while on the right it is expressed in terms of u .
In mathematics, a change of variables is a basic technique used to simplify problems in which the original variables are replaced with functions of other variables. The intent is that when expressed in new variables, the problem may become simpler, or equivalent to a better understood problem.

A standard method of evaluating the secant integral presented in various references involves multiplying the numerator and denominator by sec θ + tan θ and then using the substitution u = sec θ + tan θ. This substitution can be obtained from the derivatives of secant and tangent added together, which have secant as a common factor. [6]
But in the U.S., doctors cannot treat more than 100 buprenorphine patients at a time. Nearly half of all 3,100 counties in America have no doctors certified to prescribe buprenorphine by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the Drug Enforcement Administration, according to a Huffington Post analysis.
The substitution is described in most integral calculus textbooks since the late 19th century, usually without any special name. [5] It is known in Russia as the universal trigonometric substitution, [6] and also known by variant names such as half-tangent substitution or half-angle substitution.
