integral of ((x+1)^2)/(x^2)

\int \frac{( x + 1 ) ^{2}}{x ^{2}} d x

x + 2 ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{x} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{( x + 1 ) ^{2}}{x ^{2}} d x

Expand

\frac{( x + 1 ) ^{2}}{x ^{2}} : 1 + \frac{2}{x} + \frac{1}{x ^{2}}

= \int 1 + \frac{2}{x} + \frac{1}{x ^{2}} d x

Apply the Sum Rule:

\int f (x) \pm g (x) d x = \int f (x) d x \pm \int g (x) d x

= \int 1 d x + \int \frac{2}{x} d x + \int \frac{1}{x ^{2}} d x

\int 1 d x = x

\int \frac{2}{x} d x = 2 ln ∣ x ∣

\int \frac{1}{x ^{2}} d x = - \frac{1}{x}

= x + 2 ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{x}

Add a constant to the solution

= x + 2 ln ∣ x ∣ - \frac{1}{x} + C

\int \frac{1}{n ( n + 1 )}

y^{^{''}} - 3 y^{^{'}} - 18 y = 0

x^{3} - 15 x^{2} + 50 x, - x^{3} + 15 x^{2} - 50 x

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{2 n + 3}

- 2 y^{^{'}} + 6 x^{2} = 0
