  • Welcome to math.SE!! What have you tried? How are defined $a$ and $n$? From what variable must we integrate?

  • n is a natural no.'a' is just a rational no.x is the integration variable.I wrote it as x^n - frac(x^n) and then tried to integrate.The 1st part can be integrated directly and the second part is periodic(0,1). I get answer as (x^(n+1)-frac(x)^(n+1)-1)/(n+1). But the answer in the book does not match mine.
