integral of 5/(x^2-36)

\int \frac{5}{x ^{2} - 36} d x

- \frac{5}{12} (ln \frac{x}{6} + 1 - ln \frac{x}{6} - 1) + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{5}{x ^{2} - 36} 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 ^{2} - 36} d x

Apply Integral Substitution

= 5 \cdot \int \frac{1}{6 ( u ^{2} - 1 )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} \cdot \int \frac{1}{u ^{2} - 1} d u

Factor

u^{2} - 1 : - (- u^{2} + 1)

= 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} \cdot \int \frac{1}{- ( - u ^{2} + 1 )} d u

Take the constant out:

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

= 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} (- \int \frac{1}{- u ^{2} + 1} d u)

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{- u ^{2} + 1} d u = \frac{ln ∣ u + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ u - 1 ∣}{2}

= 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} (- (\frac{ln ∣ u + 1 ∣}{2} - \frac{ln ∣ u - 1 ∣}{2}))

Substitute back

u = \frac{x}{6}

= 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} (- (\frac{ln \frac{x}{6} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{x}{6} - 1}{2}))

Simplify

5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} (- (\frac{ln \frac{x}{6} + 1}{2} - \frac{ln \frac{x}{6} - 1}{2})) : - \frac{5}{12} (ln \frac{x}{6} + 1 - ln \frac{x}{6} - 1)

= - \frac{5}{12} (ln \frac{x}{6} + 1 - ln \frac{x}{6} - 1)

Add a constant to the solution

= - \frac{5}{12} (ln \frac{x}{6} + 1 - ln \frac{x}{6} - 1) + C

\frac{\partial}{\partial t} (3 t^{2})

\frac{d}{d x} (arctan (2 x + 3))

\int (- 9 cos (x)) d x

\int x^{2} - 9 x + 14 d x

\int \frac{x + 2}{x ^{2} + 5 x} d x
