integral of-2/(x+1)

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

- 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

Solution steps

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

Take the constant out:

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

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

Apply u-substitution

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

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

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= - 2 ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x + 1

= - 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= - 2 ln ∣ x + 1 ∣ + C

\int x (3 x - 2) d x

\frac{d y}{d x} + x y = y

\int_{- 1}^{9} 9 - x^{2} + 8 x d x

y^{^{'}} = \frac{5 x sec ( \frac{y}{x} ) + y}{x}

3 cos (t + \frac{π}{3})
