Can you integrate sin^3(x)cos^3(x) dx this way...?

u = cos x
du/dx = -sinx
du= -sin dx
du/-sinx = dx

therefore, INT sin^3(x) u^3 du/-sinx

cancels to: INT -sin^2(x) u^3 du

[-sin^2(x) = u^2 - 1] so becomes:

INT (u^2 - 1)u^3 du

= INT (u^5 - u^3) du

== 1/6 u^6 - 1/4 u^4

=== 1/6 cos^6(x) - 1/4 cos^4(x) +c

sin^3(x)cos^3(x) dx = (sin x cos x)^3= (1/2 sin 2x)^3
1/8 sin 2x sin^2x= 1/8 sin 2x (1-cos^2x)
=1/8 sin 2x - 1/8 sin 2x cos^2x
Integrate now .

=1/8 (-cos 2x) 1/2 -1/8 (-1/3 cos^3 (2x) +c
= 1/24 cos^3 (2x) -1/16 cos 2x +c
This seem to be the answer.

That seems like the most straightforward way to me.

(Choose "substitue cosx" option, but same thing either way)

You work is correct. However, I would like to present as follows:
