Use integration by substitution to find..
int(3x^2-2)(x^3-2x)^7 dx
----------------------------
Let u = x^3-2x
Then du = 3x^2-2 dx
------------------------
Substitute into your original integral and you get:
int[u^7 du]
---
Integrate wrt u to get:
(1/8)u^8 + C
--------------------
Substitute back into "x" to get:
= (1/8)(x^3-2x)^8 + C
================================
