integral of (x^3-2)/(x+1)

\int \frac{x ^{3} - 2}{x + 1} d x

\frac{x ^{3}}{3} - \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + x - 3 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{x ^{3} - 2}{x + 1} d x

Long division

\frac{x ^{3} - 2}{x + 1} : x^{2} - x + 1 - \frac{3}{x + 1}

= \int x^{2} - x + 1 - \frac{3}{x + 1} 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 x^{2} d x - \int x d x + \int 1 d x - \int \frac{3}{x + 1} d x

\int x^{2} d x = \frac{x ^{3}}{3}

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

\int 1 d x = x

\int \frac{3}{x + 1} d x = 3 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

= \frac{x ^{3}}{3} - \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + x - 3 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= \frac{x ^{3}}{3} - \frac{x ^{2}}{2} + x - 3 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

\int 2 x + 8 d x

\int 6 x^{2} e^{x} d x

\int \frac{u}{u - 1} d u

f (x) = x cos (x) sin (x)

\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{t ^{2} + 2} d t
