integral of 5/((x-1)^2)

\int \frac{5}{( x - 1 ) ^{2}} d x

- \frac{5}{x - 1} + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{5}{( x - 1 ) ^{2}} d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 5 \cdot \int \frac{1}{( x - 1 ) ^{2}} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u

= 5 \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2}} d u

Apply the Power Rule

: - \frac{1}{u}

= 5 (- \frac{1}{u})

Substitute back

u = x - 1

= 5 (- \frac{1}{x - 1})

Simplify

5 (- \frac{1}{x - 1}) : - \frac{5}{x - 1}

= - \frac{5}{x - 1}

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{5}{x - 1} + C

\int \frac{x + 5}{2 x ^{3} - 8 x} d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (cos (x + 3 y))

\frac{d}{d x} (3 x^{2} - 2 x - 1)

\frac{d}{d x} (1 - \frac{2}{x})

\int 4 - 2 x^{2} d x
